Some of Albania's leaders are reportedly alarmed over Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama's decision to speak on behalf of Kosovo. Meanwhile, some Kosovo Albanians and Kosovo Serbs have reacted angrily to Rama's intention to attend the forthcoming Belgrade summit on the economy and security, scheduled for October. The Albanian delegation of industrialists headed by Rama is due to take part in the summit, which is slated to be held in Belgrade between October 12 and October 14.
High on the agenda will be bolstering economic cooperation between Tirana and Belgrade as well as discussing Albanian-Serbian relations in the region. The gathering is expected to be attended by a delegation from Kosovo, due to be headed by the Deputy Minister of the Local Self-Government of Kosovo, Bajram Gecaj.
n an interview with Sputnik, Pristina-based political analyst Berat Buzhala said that it is unclear how "the people of Kosovo will react to such a move by Edi Rama," and that he is very much concerned about the fact that Edi Rama moves to speak in Belgrade on behalf of Kosovo."
