Kosovo's Prime Minister Albin Kurti has once again declined to report to the Special Prosecutor's Office concerning an investigation into alleged corruption involving state reserves. Kurti, who insists he is willing to testify, claims that the request to summon him is politically motivated. Meanwhile, the governing body of the prosecutors supports the summons, arguing that Kurti's comments undermine democratic institutions. His party recently performed well in elections but lacks a majority, complicating the formation of a new government amidst the political tensions.
Kurti claims the prosecutor's request is politically driven, stating, "It is using and abusing its freedom to fight the government, not crime and corruption."
Prosecutors criticized Kurti's allegations, saying that they "seriously damage the functioning of the democratic institutions" and must ensure the accountability of all public officials.
