Open letter to Prime Minister and President of the Republic of Kosovo Pristina [21.08.2025] Albin KurtiDear President Vjosa OsmaniI am Arta Bajrami, a popular singer, but above all, a mother of two with autism. Today, I am not writing to you as an artist, but as a mother who daily struggles with challenges that result in lack of institutional care for children with special needs in Kosovo.1. Political rage in the collapse since the February 9th elections, Kosovo has entered a shameful political stalemate. The Assembly has failed over 50 times to elect a chairman, the government has not been formed, and the lives of citizens are left hostage to political markets. This crisis has paralyzed any state process from the institutional budget to social projects affecting the lives of thousands of families.2. The law on children with special needs ] continued injustice, even though it has been talking about the law on disabled children for years, has not yet been adopted. Meanwhile, about 38,000 disabled children are outside the education system, and their families receive no minimum support. You know that every day late is an irreparable damage to the development of these children. Is there more shame than a country that turns its back on the most vulnerable? 3. Halil Kastrat's project of the missing Heumanist Halil Kastrati has launched an extraordinary project for building a residence for children with autism. This is a rescue project that would bring hope to many families. But even this has remained blocked because institutions are not giving the approval and support needed. When civil society and human individuals do what the state has to do, you still keep quiet. My request I am not begging you, I am asking you with the right to grant me citizen status, mother status and a public figure representing many families like mine: 1. Form institutions immediately and remove the country from the political crisis. 2. Adopt the law on children with special needs without further delay. 3. Support and approve Halil Kastrat's project for child residence with autism. If you do not act, then history will remind you of how the leaders who neglected the most fragile children in this country. With pain, indignation, and the strength of a mother, Arta Bajrami singer & Mother of two children with autism
