Vetevendosje MP Aida Derguti told a press conference in Pristina today that everyone is witnessing violations by police officers in the Kosovo Assembly and especially the attack on Vetevendosje MP Albulena Haxhiu. “Violence against members of parliament constitutes an unprecedented violation of competencies. The presence of police officers and the expulsion of MPs are illegitimate and no measure was taken against such actions. Neither the Speaker of Parliament nor the presidency is authorized to order such actions against the MPs,” Derguti said. Vetevendosje MP Rexhep Selimi told reporters that “the regime was planning to bring explosives to the February 17 protest of the opposition”. Selimi also criticized the deployment of snipers around the Assembly building, saying that it was done to scare the people. “Even KFOR and EULEX were deceived with false information that there will be violence against state institutions,” he added.
