President of the Republic of Kosovo, Mrs. Atifete Jahjaga, strongly condemns the burning of the flag of Republic of Macedonia at the protest organised in Prishtina, classifying it as an inacceptable act.
President Jahjaga emphasized that while the right to protest is a right guaranteed by the Constitution and the laws of the Republic of Kosovo in order to express the displeasure on certain issues, such ugly acts, which aim incitement of hatred, are in full contravention of values and ideals which we have embraced as a democratic society.
President Jahjaga requests that mandated law enforcement and justice bodies bring the perpetrators of this act to face the justice.
