AAK seeks the support of the opposition parties for a motion of no confidence in the government of Prime Minister Albin Kurti.
The chairman of the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo, Ramush Haradinaj, called on other opposition parties to support a motion by this party to overthrow the government due to the breakdown of relations with international friends and the non-inclusion of veterans in the minimum wage law.
He made these comments after the meeting he held with representatives of the associations that emerged from the war of the Kosovo Liberation Army, to discuss the minimum wage law and the government's approach to Western allies.
Mr. Haradinaj said that the government is making some mistakes that are very dangerous.
"I think that the politics of Kosovo, especially according to me, I am talking about in this case represented by Kurti's government and Albin Kurti has stuck a knife in the back of our two most sublime values that we have. And I'm not starting with the first for the country, but I'm starting with the knife in the back of the trust created since the time of the war for freedom between the Albanians and the American-leaning NATO," he said.
The meeting organized by the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo is part of the actions that the opposition has announced to oppose the government's approach to the crisis in the north. Tensions increased at the end of May when the Albanian mayors of the northern municipalities of Kosovo took office with the support of the police after the local elections in April which were boycotted by the Serbs.
Mr. Haradinaj said that the only solution for the country at present is the dismissal of the current government.
"We are asking for the help of other opposition parties and we hope to get it, we are asking for the help of other veterans who are in the Vetëvendosje group", he said.
He said that the behavior of Prime Minister Albin Kurti towards the veterans of the Kosovo Liberation Army is inhumane, non-national and non-state.
The Alliance for the Future of Kosovo in the opposition, submitted on Friday to the Constitutional Court of Kosovo, the request for the evaluation of the constitutionality of the Law on the minimum wage, which aroused many reactions after its approval two weeks ago by the parliament.
The law on the minimum wage foresees its increase to 264 euros, from 130 to 170 as it is currently, while not including the categories resulting from the war of the former Kosovo Liberation Army.
The office of the presidency of Kosovo has announced that President Vjosa Osmani will not sign the Law on the minimum wage without a decision of the Constitutional Court.
The head of the Association of Family Members of the Martyrs of the Kosovo Liberation Army, Xhavit Jashari, said that the opposition to the government's decisions on the minimum wage will continue.
"The recent decisions of this government that through the deputies that it has in the parliament in the situation in which those decisions are taken, I think that they have made a big betrayal to the state, they have made a big betrayal to the institutions, but they have made a betrayal to this category, that is, to the veterans of the Kosovo Liberation Army", said Mr. Jashari.
The Government of Kosovo has said that with the new Law on the minimum wage, the amendment of the Law on veterans is foreseen, so that, as they say, "until the final categorization of the list of veterans, the Government of Kosovo decides on the amount of pensions determined by this law".
The law on the minimum wage was approved without the presence of the opposition at the end of a day of physical fights in the parliament that fueled concerns about the deepening of political divisions at a time when Kosovo is facing one of the deepest crises in its relations with international allies due to the situation in the north of Kosovo./ VOA
