Kupina reacts to PDK deputy on President's salary: It is an honor for Kosovo citizens

Bekim Kupina, media adviser to the president, Vjosa Osmani has reacted to Democratic Party of Kosovo MP Florete Zamenu, saying President Vjosa Osmani receives her annual salary as originally envisioned by law and has used it in the function of affirmation of Kosovo worldwide, improving her image, but that she has not lobbied in the fragmentation of her territory.

Kupina has written on Facebook that it is not enough to register on the Kosovo Parliament's lists of deputies to figure out, as an MP's public statement matters.

Contrary to earlier, President Osmani has used its salary in the function of affirmation of Kosovo worldwide, improving its image, but not lobbiing its territory. It is an honor for Kosovo citizens this time they have a worthy representation by President Osmani. The PDK MP's stance coincided with the day when the BIRN regional report reveals President Osmani's office, the most transparent institution in the Western Balkans. According to the BIRN report, the records of the former president's office were completely opposite; requests for information rights received no answer or were refused despite legal obligation. Honored MP, before you find out, trace the facts, then draw the correct conclusions, not just to say. To satisfy the need for discussion, less than to make news on online media. Moreover, as the form shows, the pre-president's salary has been the same as that of President Osmani”, he wrote.

The deputy of the largest opposition party, Florete Zejundu, at today's Kosovo Parliament session, said that this family is treating Kosovo as the monarch and that the same ones receive about 33 minimum salaries for a month.

Kosovo President Vjosa Osmani and her husband,don Sadriou, receive tens of thousands of euros in wages from Kosovo budget only. Vjosa Osman's presidential family is treating Kosovo as the monarch, while this family from the state budget within 1 year receives more money than any Kosovo citizen. From the wealth declaration at the Anti-Corruption Agency, this family receives more than 33 thousand euros in salaries for only 1 year, her husband, who is already advanced in diplomacy, receives over 36 thousand euros in salaries per year. So the Osmani-Sadriu presidential family receive Kosovo's budget more than 7,000 euros over one year”, she said.
