Even Albin Kurti himself is mentioned in the UN report, his power is being assessed by “serious corruption”

The main concerns for Kosovo remain independence of the judiciary, restrictions on media freedom, and the most challenging serious corruption in the Government of Kosovo.

So, at least it's said in the 2023 U.S. State Department report on human rights in the world.

These findings for Democratic League of Kosovo i Democratic Party of Kosovo They were expected.

For Ehat Miftaraj from the Kosovo Institute for Justice, in a proposal for Periscopi says it is one of the most controversial reports.

All of this, according to Miftaw, was due to the government's unwillingness to enforce rule of law.

This year's State Department report on Kosovo is among the most controversial reports of the institutions of the Republic of Kosovo in various areas affecting democracy, rule of law and fighting corruption. This report is a mirror of the state of Kosovo on two levels. The first level relates to the lack of political will of this government to implement the principles of good governance and rule of law and to building the culture of impunity in cases of corruption”, he said of Periscope.

He says that in addition to related corrupt ministers, Prime Minister Albin Kurti himself is mentioned in the UN report on violating the judicial system.

Unfortunately, in this government it is normal for ministers and high positions to get involved in corrupts and therefore have no consequences at all, and to be offered additional support and protection by the prime minister himself for persons suspected in corruptive circumstances is among the first times when the country's own prime minister is mentioned in this report as violating the independence of the judicial system and the prosecutor's”, he told Periscope.

And, political connoisseur, Dr. Arifi says it's a pity for the UN report.

He blames the Government of Kosovo, as he has not taken the findings of the 2022 report seriously.

The findings of Koosova's 2023 report are regrets because Kurt's government failed to make improvements from 2022, so in a way it didn't take the 2022” report seriously, he told Periscope.

Meanwhile, on the part of the Government of Kosovo, since the release of this report, they have not provided any comments.

Among the most important reports on human rights were serious problems with the independence of the judiciary; serious restrictions on freedom of expression and freedom of media, including violence or threats against journalists; serious government corruption; widespread gender-based violence, including domestic violence, or partners; as well as violent crimes, or threats to violence against ethnic minorities and other communities.

The State Department report says the Kosovo government took reliable but not continuous steps to identify, investigate, accuse and punish officials who may have abused human rights. /Periscopi
