| What was journalists' association reaction | [:en]AJK strongly condemns the insulting language used by Kosovo's ambassador to Italy, Alma Lama who in facebook post has insulted and accused KTV journalist Xhemajl Rexha. The use of such language by an ambassador is an insult for journalists in country. By condemning this act, we ask the ministry of foreign affairs to issue a statement about this case. We demand from the ministry not to allow ambassadors to insult journalists in no case. Unfortunately, such accusations are coming from an ex journalist that just some time ago has started political career. [:] |
