A representative of the Gorani community Avni Bahtiari warned on departure of Gorani from Kosovo and the lack of representation in the institutions.
Avni Bahtiari told RTK2 that Gorani which are living abroad will be assimilated, pointing out that more and more people are choosing to live in developed European countries, because of the poor economic situation and the position of Gorani in Kosovo society. “Data show that members of non-majority Communities, in particular Gorani, have a minimum representation in the institutions of Kosovo. Also, we are the only community without media coverage at public broadcaster RTK,” said Bahtiari.
Bahtiari is Information Officer of the Advisory Council for Communities within the Office of the President of Kosovo. He called the authorities to invest more in the economic stability of the Gorani community.
