AJK condemns the insulting remarks of Nexhmedin Spahiu against the Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian communities

The Association of Journalists of Kosovo is outraged by the insulting and unacceptable language of the professor of political sciences, Nexhmedin Spahiu, against the Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian communities in Kosovo.

In two media appearances in the last few days, Spahiu has used offensive and discriminatory language in relation to the Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian communities in our country.

AJK invites Mr. Spahiu to apologize publicly for the remarks, and from the media to work in order to not allow space for a language that violates the integrity of the citizens of Kosovo that belong to these communities.

AJK also asks the IMC and PCK to monitor hate speech against communities in the media.

Through several collaborations and activities, AJK is constantly committed to the inclusion of the three communities, Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian in the public life of Kosovo and against the use of offensive and exclusionary language towards them.
