Ramush Haradinaj urges Albin Kurti to resign

He has criticised Kurti, who has decided that Health Minister Arben Vitita will be the candidate for mayor of the Pristina municipality.

Haradinaj has said that if this is the quality of how Kurt will face the challenges Kosovo has, in this case with pandemic, then it is better that he resigns today

“listen completely to the Minister Vitita for resignation. I think it's legitimate, but it's not Vitita's fault, it's his boss, who at the time of increasing the risk to people's health, has a reasonable estimate of running the Minister of Health for Mayor. In this case, I believe that the legitimate request for resignation is addressed to Kurt and I appeal to him that if this is the quality of how he will face the challenges Kosovo has, in this case with pandemic, then he is better to resign today, don't hold the people hostage, and don't delay the right actions around the pandemic”, he added.

Otherwise, Haradinaj at a news conference he is holding for the media has said countries in the region have shown much more serious and focused on vaccine.

He said infection figures are alarming.

The countries of the region have shown much more serious and focused on vaccine. The vaccine figure is over 50% in countries in the region, in Kosovo we are about 12-13 percent. With neutrality at a time when the health of our citizens is at stake for us is incomprehensible and therefore at this time of risking people's health we have some requests for the government and we want to address them. So we think that the government needs to focus on the vaccine, I have to understand the situation as emergency, it has to bring in vaccines, it has to have a frame plan, it has to be serious. At the same time, not to ignore this in the way he has ignored it so far, I am ignoring it on the candidacy of Minister of Health for mayor, so this situation also shows the government's boss, Mr. Kurti.
