Kosovo Women Network (KWN) today reacted against a statement made by former Assembly Speaker Jakup Krasniqi yesterday who while speaking about failures of Kosovo delegation in talks with Serbia, called the delegation as “women’s delegation.” “KWN considers this statement absurd and very offensive to all women and girls in Kosovo, especially for women in politics and decision-making, since such statements only reinforce the existing social, political and gender discrimination in Kosovo. KWN considers as unacceptable drawing parallels between failures in the negotiations and being a woman. The KWN calls on Mr.Krasniqi to apologize for his offensive statement,” reads the press release issued by KWN.
