Kosovo’s Foreign Minister, Enver Hoxhaj, said that the Turkish Embassy’s note calling on the government of Kosovo to take necessary legal steps against the Gazeta Express journalist Berat Buzhala for his Facebook comments over the coup attempt in Turkey is out of the ordinary, unacceptable and an overreaction.  Hoxhaj said Buzhala’s comments were sarcastic and had no political motives. “In my view, the Turkish Embassy in Pristina overreacted,” said Hoxhaj adding that Kosovo respects freedom of expression and of the press.
