Ibar River Debate/Rama Attacks Critics in Pristina: The Nationalist Turbo-Folk Army Accuses Me of Treason!

In a post on the social media platform X, Prime Minister Edi Rama has again responded to the latest debates involving Serbia and Kosovo over the Ibar River, defending his statement a day earlier that “Serbia lost Kosovo.”

Rama said he has a special way of measuring the accuracy of his positions when he speaks about Serbia. He referred to his critics in Pristina as “the army of nationalist turbo-folk trolls.”

“Whenever that army is unleashed across social media channels to vent its blind hatred toward me, I consider my duty as prime minister of this country successfully fulfilled, whether toward Albania, Kosovo, or regional peace and cooperation 🇦🇱🇽🇰🇪🇺🇷🇸.

Yesterday, too, the laboratory worked perfectly, with the trolls being unleashed to reaffirm that I am a traitor because I said Serbia lost Kosovo, during my intervention in the dignified debate of recent days between our authorities and those of Serbia over the inviolability of the Ibar River,” Rama wrote.

I have an excellent laboratory for measuring the accuracy of my positions when I speak or post about Serbia: Pristina’s army of nationalist turbo-folk trolls 😍

So my position was precise, given that in that entire exhaustive intervention—which was also welcomed by British MP Alicia Kerns herself, an ardent champion of Kosovo in the United Kingdom—the nationalist turbo-folk base in Pristina found a single sentence to latch onto so as not to allow that clear position against Serbia’s provocation to “confuse” the turbo-folk fans 🤡

That Serbia lost Kosovo is simply a fact, as searing for nationalist turbo-folk in Belgrade as it is irritating for nationalist turbo-folk in Pristina, and their renewed alignment yesterday in their pathetic opposition to me is simply another compliment for the diplomacy of Albania, the Europe of the Balkans 🇦🇱❤️🇪🇺
