The Parliamentary Group of the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) has abandoned the session of the Kosovo Assembly on Thursday, after the request that the draft resolution on the protection of the truth and victims of war be placed as the first item on the agenda for voting was not accepted.

The initiative was proposed by PDK MP Vlora Çitaku, who requested that the issue be treated with full priority, describing it as one of the most important topics for the Assembly.


After failing to reach a compromise with the Vetëvendosje Movement, which demanded harmonization of the draft with its proposals, the PDK decided to withdraw the document and leave the room. According to Çitaku, the text had been submitted on Wednesday and there had been sufficient time for review.

In a statement to FIVE on TV Dukagjini, Çitaku emphasized that the Parliament has failed to address an issue that, according to her, is essential for the state.

"There was no more important issue today, neither for debate, nor for discussion, nor for approval. Our history is being attacked from the outside and unfortunately some elements are being financed from within. Today, on behalf of the PDK, Nait Hasani, a survivor of the Dubrava massacre, spoke. We also have other colleagues who are survivors of that massacre. And with our taxes, sponsoring narratives created in Serbia is unacceptable...", said Çitaku.
