Following Albania and Northern Macedonia, Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti is expected to travel to Cyril, Switzerland, in September this year to support the Social Democrat Party in Switzerland's federal elections, to be organised on October 22nd.
As the Swiss medium reports, BlackKurti will give a speech on a panel of discussion organised by this party.
Switzerland's Social Democrat Party, as this medium is writing, is trying to use Prime Minister Kurti to channel the Albanian diaspora votes in Switzerland.
Although such a visit is not yet confirmed, the head of government, in an interview given to the Swiss daily BlakeIn January of this year, he had warned that the possibilities of co-operation between the Vetevendosje Movement and Switzerland's Social Democrat Party are being considered, especially in election campaigns.
The argument is that we support each other in election campaigns in order for the two of us to gain force”, Kurti had declared months ago.
In addition, Kurti reported in the same interview that Kadric Wermuth, co-president of the Social Democrat Party, has a close friend.
“Cedric is a good friend of mine. Our parties belong to the same ideological family. We have many Kosovars in Switzerland who are members of the SP and at the same time of my Vetevendosje party. We want to help each other with the” campaigns.
The Secretary General of the Swiss People's Party, also known as SVP and National Adviser Peter Keller, on the other hand, has described as <x0-> completely wrong” Prime Minister Kurti's planned presentation in an election campaign in Switzerland.
“Switzerland should not intervene in foreign countries' election campaigns and foreign countries should not interfere with the Swiss election campaign”, it has declared, among other things.
Unlike Kurti on May 24, 2021, two months after the formation of the Kurti II government, he had met Wermoth, announcing that he had supported Vetevendosje Movement for years.
“During the meeting, one of the main themes was Kosovo's large exile in Switzerland and around the world. We talked about creating opportunities for the exiles to invest in their homeland, but also about the need our country needs for their return. Communists have gained extraordinary experience abroad, and are the potential for Kosovo's” development. / AP/
