31/08/2016 00:00

The Prime Minister of Kosovo, Isa Mustafa, warned that the voting of the
Demarcation Law with Montenegro will be removed from today’s agenda.

“It is not normal to discuss it in these conditions”, Mustafa said, while protesters were opposing the agreement outside the building he leads.

Parliament security officers arrested the Self-Determination Movement MP, Donika Kadaj Bujupi, after she was found hiding a spraying instrument in her hair.

Another MP, Aida Derguti, was also arrested in the toilets, hiding a tear gas bomb in her clothes.

The MP of the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo, Daut Haradinaj, said for the media that his MPs will vote against demarcation.

The Self-Determination leader, Glauk Konfjuca, said that this agreement goes against Kosovo.

“Kosovo loses water reserves and land. Kosovo cannot lose land. No country in the world can exist without territory, as the Kosovo constitution says. The people exerts its sovereignty through Parliament Members. We will defend this sovereignty with what we can”, Konfjuca said, adding that the political class is having the same pressure as with the Special Court.

The Serbian List declared that their MPs would not be present for security reasons. Their absence makes the ratification impossible.
