Conventioners meet in Pristina Albanian opposition students at RMV, Ohrid language topic discussion

Two American congressers will hold separate meetings today with representatives of the Albanian Student Movement and leaders of the Albanian opposition in Northern Macedonia.
Media in the RMV suggest that, in the focus of Congressers' meeting Keith Self and Suhas Submanyam, there will be concerns about, as appreciated by participants, efforts to destroy the spirit of the Ohrid Agreement and encroach on Albanian rights, writes A2 CNN, broadcast Periscope.
According to media information in Macedonia, the meeting is expected to take place at 17:30 in Pristina, where there are currently two American congressers. Mevlan Ademi will also attend the meeting, along with representatives of students who have organised recent protests on the protection of Albanian language use and implementation of constitutional and legal rights.
Sources from organisers for Macedonian media suggest that students will present their concerns over the failure to implement the Law on the use of languages, as well as warnings about, according to them, turning back in proportion to rights acquired after the Ohrid Agreement.
Meanwhile, at 20:30, congressers Keith Self and Suhas Submanyam are expected to also hold meetings with Albanian opposition leaders in northern Macedonia, where Ali Ahmeti, Arben Taravari and Zijadin Sela will participate.
The main topic of discussions is expected to be political developments in the country, the position of Albanians and concerns about trends that, according to the Albanian opposition and the Student Movement, endanger the principles of equality and co-existence guaranteed with the Ohrid Agreement.
Meanwhile, two American congressers have so far visited Presevo, where they met and discussed with Albanian officials in the Valley, while also hosted by Kosovo's top leaders. Keith Self and Suhas Submaniyam are two influential American congressers who have consistently supported the causes and rights of Albanians in Macedonia and Serbia, while lobbling for Kosovo's irresistent support to international organisations. /Periscope
