    Albin Kurti is the incumbent Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo, an office he has held since 22 March 2021. He previously served in that role between February and June 2020. He is also the President of Kosovo’s biggest political party Lëvizja Vetëvendosje. Kurti came to prominence in 1997 as the Vice-President of the University of Pristina Student Union, and organizer of non-violent demonstrations in 1997 and 1998. His role as Prime Minister of Kosovo is perceived as an essential factor of stability in the Western Balkans. Mr Kurti has pushed hard for Kosovo’s international recognition in the EU, the finalisation of the Kosovan-Serbian dialogue, as well as significant domestic reforms.

    This man is so normal, it's a pleasure to listen to him. Because people love logic. We in Serbia are used to being manipulated and lied by politicians. Where logic stops, Serbia begins. In Serbia, politicians think one thing, talk another, do a third, and want a fourth. While Albin Kurti thinks the same, talks the same, does the same and wants the same. Great support from me from Serbia. Albin Kurti, I love you and I would give my life for your life. Kosovo is an independent country and friendly contry unlike Serbia 🇽🇰❤️

      Why do you think that the West supports the Albanians!? The USA and UK, Europe know exactly what has happened to the Serbs since 1906. In 1918 63% of all Serbs were killed, partly by genocide! In 1949, 65% of Serbs were killed, 50% of them by genocide in the cruelest Jasenovac concentration camp. Iraq, Afghanistan, were friends of the USA, including Yugoslavia's President Slobodan Milosevic, whose elections were financed by the USA and the West!!! Until Slobodan Milosevic, there were Catholics who ruled Yugoslavia. Josip Bros Tito was a Croat, he gave you asylum and the right to stay, even though you shot the Serbs in the back in the First and Second World Wars, the Serbs always gave you a new chance.
      I want to tell you: Don't expect help and sit down at the negotiating table with the Serbs, because it is too late. Kosovo costs four times as much as Serbia combined, we have our allies because there is a lack of territory. India, China, Pakistan, they were given a homeland by Serbia in 1906, all of Albania was Serbia, and no, they are not the Ilyrians, but Albanians from Georgia, more precisely from the Albania Mountains in the Caucasus. We Serbs are Ilyrians and Byzantines Greek Orthodox Christians and if you want to know more about it!!! The West wants to swap territories with the Islamic states, which is why Germania is flooded and these refugees are financed by the entire West. Where all the riches on earth are, they also want the dismantling of Russia, but they have miscalculated with their 90s technology, Iran and China, Russia is in the fast lane. Ask me if you want to know why the West still supports the KLA.

    We, the practicing Muslim Albanians of Kosova, support our Prime Minister. Still we dont want this lies about freedom of sexuality to be equalized with ethnic or religious minorities. Most Albanians, even those who are not too religious, are against same sex marriage in our country. That doesnt mean homosexuals to be treated badly. it just does mean allowing same sex marriage to be the base for allowing them to raise adopted children in that ill environment. stats from psychological literature of the past 70 years prove me right. kids develop much worse in same sex marriage as in traditional families. saving the well of our countries children is much more important than self fullfilment of a sick minority. I hope Albins party to recognize this and to not change the law in this regard. gays should have their rights but should not touch our children! we do t want to support child molesters in our country like most of our fellow European countries do.
