Muhaxheri Responds: My Victory in Peja Came Before the Abdixhiku Era

Gazmend Muhaxheri, who governs Peja and serves on the LDK Presidency, has commented on Lumir Abdixhiku’s statement that he had “spared him the shame over his remarks about Milošević.” He described it as the personal stance of his political opponent.

Muhaxheri stressed that he achieved electoral success in his city before Abdixhiku had taken over as party leader. “I secured my first term as mayor without Lumir’s support. In fact, I won at a time when even Isa Mustafa did not believe I could,” he said.

In a parallel development, the LDK’s local branch in Peja, led by Muhaxheri, had previously called on Abdixhiku last month to resign as a moral gesture. The request followed the party’s result in the June 7 elections.
