Protesters from Kosovo and RMV/ Lamallari ironically: As a movie script, swords

The Minister of Internal Affairs, Besfort Lamallari, responded today regarding the arrival of several protesters from Kosovo and North Macedonia.

Through a post on social media, Lamallari states that the use of these license plates with the idea that they are protesters from the 'diaspora' for the salvation of the country cannot distort the meaning of this word, only through 'disguising' with pleats and scarves.

Full reaction:

With license plates ???????? and ????????, they enter the Republic of Albania as if they are 'diaspora' saving the country, with turbans on their heads and patriotic songs in the background, the red and black flag or that of the KLA in one hand and the steering wheel in the other, similar to a movie script where only the swords, horses and legendary hero are missing!

Guys, you can wear the plis and the xamadan if you want, but at least understand that the words expatriate or diaspora have the same meaning across the border and that returning to your homeland from a foreign land has nothing to do with your commute from Pristina or Tetovo to Tirana.

The Republic of Kosovo is an independent state and Albanians in the Republic of North Macedonia are a state-forming factor.

Therefore, when you wave the KLA flag in front of the Prime Minister's Office, remember that it was the Prime Minister of the Republic of Albania who first requested the recognition of Kosovo's independence in the middle of Belgrade.

It's great that you wave the national flag, but remember that the true brave fought the foreign invader, not the brother-in-law.

You are always welcome in Albania, especially with patriotic songs playing in the background of your luxury vehicles, but spare yourself the weak refrain of 'the honest immigrant with a one-way ticket'.

PS: Everyone expresses patriotism in their own way, but I am proud that without fanfare and fuss, together with my colleagues in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kosovo, over the years we have contributed to more security and order for our countries, the citizens of ???????? and ????????, thus providing more peace and stability in the Western Balkans region. /CNA
