Pristina Mayor Shpend Ahmeti has made that known through a post in his Facebook profile.
He has said that this decision, besides the cost, has an impact on the circulation of people who have no other option, given that public institutions, health institutions and even some companies still function in Pristina.
His full post:
I just accepted the Home Affairs Ministry's decision to cut off public transportation in the entire Republic of Kosovo immediately.
While we have been the main supporters of the resistance measures, and we have also supported each central-level decision, this decision has been taken without consultation, not even 30 seconds with the Pristina municipality or other municipalities.
This decision besides the cost has an impact on the circulation of people who have no other option, given that public institutions, health institutions and even some companies still function in Pristina.
Perhaps this decision would be necessary, but immediate interruption without any possibility of planning better both as logistics and as costs need not be made.
Co-ordination with all institutions is necessary. We're all soldiers in one battle.
P.S. I believe the government will add a few million subsidies to public transportation companies across Kosovo.
