Zbogar: Kosovo has shown good example in combating extremism (Indeksonline)

The Kosovo Center for Security Studies organized a conference today on religious extremism and problems facing Kosovo in this regard. Participants in this panel were Kosovo Minister of Internal Affairs Skender Hyseni, and head of the EU Office in Kosovo, Samuel Zbogar.  During the conference, Zbogar said that religious radicalism is a problem facing the whole world and not only in Kosovo. "Kosovo has shown good example in combating extremism and terrorism, by reacting quickly in cases of specific individuals. Also the state of Kosovo has learned from the practices of countries in the region who already have some experience in fighting religious extremism,” he said. Minister Hyseni said that despite the problems that Kosovo has with some individuals fighting in foreign wars, “Islam remains a good practice, except that some people misinterpret it for certain interests.” He stated that extremism is being fought every day more and the results of this war are visible.
