Commentary: The actions the Kosovo government has taken against media outlets are a stain on Kosovo’s claim to be a democratic state.
Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama, right, and former President Bill Clinton listen to the national anthems on July 3, 2023, during a ceremony in the Albanian capital of Tirana.
Their shared concerns, and the ethnic Serbian resistance, has thus far not dissuaded the prime minister. Instead, Kurti has used state agencies to attempt to target media outlets reporting on the crisis.
The action prompted the International Press Institute to join other media freedom and journalism organizations in expressing alarm, calling the actions of the Kosovar government “extremely serious” and saying it poses a “threat to the exercise of media freedom in Kosovo.”
