AJK condemns the continued targeting of journalists and media by Vetëvendosje officials, including today’s post by spokesperson Arlind Manxhuka, who, among other things, referred to the media as “parallel institutions.” This dangerous rhetoric is unacceptable and further deteriorates the environment for practicing journalism in Kosovo.
