The paper’s front-page editorial notes that the peaceful protest by the opposition in Pristina on Saturday showed the democratic culture of the people who expressed their deep dissatisfaction with bad governance. “In fact, this [the protest] was only the start of a season of expected social unrest which was manifested even on the first day of the ‘marriage’ between Thaci and Mustafa, with strikes in every sector. The grave economic situation, an alarming level of corruption, the crisis of the judiciary and the extreme politicization of the institutional and social life, have killed the people’s hopes that one day it will be better … At a time when criminal politics prevents discussions and finding solutions through institutional mechanisms, protests are the only democratic tool to step up pressure on the politicians.”
