Serbian Minister: I would have ethnically cleansed Kosovo in 1998 if I had

The Minister of Public Administration and Local Self-Government in the Government of Serbia, Snezhana Paunovic, made a scandalous statement that has caused numerous reactions, during an interview given yesterday to the Serbian media outlet Kurir.

 
In a lengthy interview, the minister in Vučić's government said that, if she had had the freedom of action that Slobodan Milošević had, she would have "ethnically cleansed Kosovo."

 
"For our shortcomings and stupidity, if I had been free like Milosevic, I would have ethnically cleansed Kosovo in 1998," the Serbian minister declared during an interview given this weekend.

During the 1998–1999 war, Serbian forces committed massacres, murders, and mass expulsions of the Albanian civilian population in Kosovo.

Over a million Albanians were forcibly expelled from their homes, while thousands of civilians were killed or disappeared.

Her statement was shared on social media and prompted harsh reactions./ KosovaPress

Andi Bushati: An autumn with an end-of-regime atmosphere

Whether it's his own party's own dice that throw him a punch, whether it's citizens who boo him in the street, whether it's the brave SPAK prosecutors who have gotten close to his throat, or international journalists who compare him to the godfather, one thing shows that Edi Rama's political curve has reached its end. His propaganda narrative is already over.

Blendi Kajsiu: Prime Minister's misunderstanding on anti-corruption

The fact that no institution of our public administration noticed that millions of euros were invested in phantom incinerators, that AKSHI was controlled by an ordinary criminal, that the directors of the Municipality of Tirana awarded tenders to themselves, or that the police director and the director of SHISH worked for Gysi, shows that we do not have a public administration and a state.
