Halimi criticises Government for lack of guards near cultural monuments

Our country's cultural heritage or is changing its character according to the wishes of some foreign agencies that are investing in a different cultural direction or that many cultural heritage assets have been overlooked and therefore are in a phase of degradation. The year 2019 marks the end of capital investments in archaeology and for five months archaeological sites have been left without guards, because this power has failed to continue contracts to ensure that these monuments are not jeopardised”, Halimi wrote on a Facebook status.

She recalled that the Kosovo Council's report on Cultural Heritage has expressed concern over the state of cultural monuments.

Of course, when we have a power that only strategic orientation has propaganda videos, many of today's autochthon heritage treasures are left at the mercy of time. While, as a result of the neglect of this power, the archaeological site of Ulpiana, the Corish Fortress, the Harilaki Fortress, the Dresnic Archaeological Garden, the ancient Castle of Kechkola, the Vushtrria Fortress, the Veles Castle of Hidroelana-Muzeumou of Prizren”, Halimi said further.

Our cultural heritage is being destroyed by carelessness, while the Culture Ministry saves very costly videos for its promotion!”, she concluded.
