Kosovo’s acting Minister of Internal Affairs, Xhelal Svecla, has reacted to statements by Serbian minister Snezhana Paunoviq about ethnic cleansing in Kosovo.
In an interview for “Euronews Albania”, Svecla said he expects a greater engagement from Albania in the face of these stances.

“Of course, since Albania is the motherland of Albanians and since the very Constitution of Albania obligates the protection of Albanians and their interests, I expect more. That means I expect a factual, active response to these threats. Because these are not just statements, they are also threats, which are based on the past, as I said, our very painful one, and on Serbia’s behavior,” he said.
According to the acting minister, Tirana should have a more concrete and active stance towards this situation.
“She has been a deputy, where she was part of the Serbia–Albania friendship group, in which, unfortunately, Serbian chauvinists have participated. There needs to be an unmasking of this two-faced behavior of Belgrade, because there are no problems with Kosovo, but problems with Albanians,” Svecla declared.
