Partia Demokratike ka reaguar pas përplasjeve të ndodhura në protestën e sotme përpara Kuvendit, duke dënuar dhunën e ushtruar.
Në një videomesazh, kryetari i selisë blu, Sali Berisha, deklaroi se “Me urdhër të Edi Ramës, sot narkopolicia përdori lëndë toksike, gaz lotsjellës të skaduar, përdori spray ariu, lëndë piroteknike, topat e ujit, zvarritjen, përgjakjen e protestuesve paqësorë me një egërsi të papërmbajtur”.
Sipas tij, “Dëshmuan se janë të aftë dhe të gatshëm, të ndërmarrin çdo krim dhe çdo akt për të mbrojtur karrigen e tyre. Me dhjetëra e dhjetëra protestues u morën forcërisht dhe me dhunë për t’u transferuar në qelitë e komisariateve.
Edhe një herë, kërkojmë lirimin e menjëhershëm, të të gjithë të ndaluarve, protestues paqësorë që po protestonin në përputhje me të drejtën e tyre kushtetuese dhe Konventën Europiane të të Drejtave të Njeriut. Dënojmë me forcën më të madhe dhunën e egër të ushtruar ndaj tyre dhe u bëjmë thirrje qytetarëve shqiptarë, të bashkohen, të solidarizohen, të mbështesin me të gjithë potencialet e tyre suksesin e pandalshëm të lëvizjes rinore qytetare më të fuqishme që ka njohur vendi nga vitet ’90”, thuhet në deklaratën zyrtare të PD-së.

Sezoni i ri i “Abissnet Superiore” nuk do të sjellë vetëm ndryshim në formulën e kampionatit, me heqjen e “Final Four”, por edhe një risi tjetër që pritet të ketë ndikim të drejtpërdrejtë te ekipet e elitës së futbollit shqiptar.
Sipas asaj që mësohet, duke filluar nga sezoni 2026/2027, çdo skuadër e Superiores do ta ketë të detyrueshme që në formacionin titullar të një ndeshjeje të aktivizojë një futbollist të lindur në vitin 2008.
Në këtë mënyrë, klubet e Superiores do të jenë të detyruara t’i besojnë që nga minuta e parë të paktën një talenti “2008”-ësh, duke u krijuar më shumë hapësira lojtarëve të rinj që shpesh nuk gjejnë minuta në fushë.
Kjo masë shihet si një mundësi shtesë për zhvillimin e futbollistëve të rinj në kampionatin shqiptar.

Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski said that SDSM, together with the Levica party, had submitted 13,000 amendments with the aim of preventing compatriots in the diaspora from voting because, according to him, they fear they do not enjoy the support of our diaspora, TV21 reports.
Speaking about clashes with the opposition over amendments to the Electoral Code, Mickoski stressed that this sends a strong message to our citizens living abroad.
He also underlined that electronic voting would also reduce the costs of organizing diaspora voting in elections.
“Nevertheless, our red line is the diaspora vote, because the diaspora should feel connected to its homeland. Our goal as a government is to bring that diaspora back home one day. That means, if you cut off this channel as well and they do not feel that they belong to their homeland, what incentive will they have to return home when they are rejected by the very community that is their natural environment? That is our goal. And in the end, we come to the economic incentives and motives. We are now spending millions of euros to send people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other institutions as observers and to manage the diaspora voting process, which is not successful,” said Mickoski.

Interior Minister Panche Toshkovski announced that the “Safe City” system will soon make it possible to send fines to drivers of vehicles with foreign license plates as well, INA reports.
He made the announcement at the Tabanoc border crossing during the promotion of the “Drive Rested” campaign, where Serbia’s Interior Minister, Ivica Dacic, was also present.
During his remarks, Toshkovski appealed to foreign drivers and emigrants transiting through North Macedonia, especially along Corridors VIII and X, to obey traffic rules.
“The ‘Safe City’ system is operational and will apply to everyone, regardless of whether the vehicle has North Macedonian license plates or those of another country. The second phase of implementation, which предусматри sending fines to drivers of vehicles with foreign license plates, will also be completed soon. If in the 21st century we cannot find a way to deliver these fines, then we have a problem with ourselves,” Toshkovski said.
The minister explained that sending fines across borders is a complicated procedure, but stressed that the Interior Ministry has already prepared a solution, which is expected to become operational very soon.
More than 120,000 violations recorded in five months
“Safe City” was officially put into operation on February 1 this year and, through a system of intelligent cameras, automatically records traffic rule violations on the country’s roads.
According to figures presented by the minister, more than 120,000 traffic violations had been recorded by June 22. The Interior Ministry believes this number reflects both the scale of the problem and the system’s capacity to strengthen traffic control and safety.
Authorities expect that the implementation of the system’s second phase will increase the responsibility of all road users and help reduce the number of violations, regardless of whether the drivers are domestic or foreign./INA/

The story of the Begzati family from Gostivar began more than three decades ago, when a young man set off for Switzerland on a seasonal contract lasting several months, without imagining that the journey would shape his life.
After his temporary job ended, Lirim Begzati was expected to return to his hometown. However, the course of events took a different turn and, nearly thirty-five years later, he continues to live in Switzerland.
He later chose to dedicate himself to university studies, a decision that at the time was rarely made by foreigners. At the University of Neuchâtel, he completed his studies and earned a Master’s degree in Law, becoming one of the first Albanian jurists to graduate from a Swiss university during the 1990s.
His two sons followed the same path. Fisnik completed his studies at the University of Geneva, where he earned a Master’s degree in International Economics, and today he is employed by an American company in Geneva. Meanwhile, Dorian has recently earned a Master’s degree in Law at the University of Neuchâtel.
Thus, from a start as a seasonal worker, within a single generation the family achieved three university Master’s degrees, a story that the Begzati family from Gostivar simply shares as part of its history.
Lirim, meanwhile, is the son of Begzat Begzati, an advocate of education and a publicist.

After a meal consumed on Monday, 41 employees of the company “Mikrosam” in Prilep showed symptoms of food poisoning. According to the Public Health Center in Prilep, none of them ended up hospitalized.
The institution said that, together with the Sanitary and Health Inspectorate, as well as the Food and Veterinary Agency, an extraordinary inspection and supervision had been carried out both at the company and at the firm that prepared and distributed the food.
“It is clear that we are dealing with food poisoning. The meal was consumed on Monday by the first shift at the company Mikrosam, while the symptoms appeared over the following two days. From the first shift, 61 employees were exposed, while so far 41 have shown signs of poisoning. Of them, 27 sought medical assistance at the Department of Infectious Diseases at the city hospital. We have interviewed all of them.
All of them are presenting a moderate clinical condition, with high fever, nausea, diarrhea and abdominal pain. Up to this moment, no one has been hospitalized, but they have received therapy and are being treated at home,” said epidemiologist Tatijana Stanimiroviq from the Public Health Center in Prilep.
Meanwhile, the kitchen of the company that provided the food service and had distributed the meal has been closed, as has the canteen at the company where the food was consumed.
The Public Health Center is still awaiting the results that will determine the type and cause of the poisoning.

Kosovo’s ties with the United States, especially since the 1990s, remain close because of the decisive role America played in the country’s liberation and independence.
This was also emphasized by Pristina Mayor Përparim Rama at the opening of an event held in the capital for the 250th anniversary of US independence, titled “America and Kosovo: A Freedom Story for the Next 250 Years.”
The event took place two days before the 250th anniversary of American independence and at the same time on the 36th anniversary of the proclamation of the Constitutional Declaration by the then Assembly of Kosovo.
According to Rama, these two events are connected, as they express the will of the peoples of both countries for freedom, democracy and self-determination. He underlined that the July 2, 1990 Declaration carries extraordinary importance.
“That declaration was an act of courage. It reflected an unshakable belief that freedom would triumph. It became the constitutional and democratic foundation on which Kosovo’s journey toward statehood continued. Today, as we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States of America, we are reminded that the stories of our nations are linked through enduring ideals: freedom, democracy and human dignity, and above all, the rule of law and the belief that every people has the right to shape its own future. These ideals inspired the birth of the United States 250 years ago. They inspire Kosovo’s democratic journey. They continue to guide our shared future. When Kosovo faced the most defining moments of its history, the United States stood by our people. It gave strength to our hope. It defended the principles we cherish. It helped create the conditions in which freedom could flourish. For this, the people of Kosovo will remain forever grateful,” Rama said, KosovaPress reports.
He added that at a time when the world is undergoing profound geopolitical changes and democracy is being tested in many countries, Kosovo remains firmly committed to its Euro-Atlantic orientation, as well as its friendship and partnership with the US.
In this context, Rama announced that on behalf of the citizens of Pristina, July 4, the day of the declaration of independence of the United States, will be declared American Friendship Day in Pristina.
“At a time when the world is facing profound geopolitical changes, when democracy is challenged in many countries, and when freedom requires renewed commitment, alliances based on trust, shared values and mutual respect become more important than ever. Kosovo remains unwavering on its Euro-Atlantic path. We remain committed to democracy, to freedom, to peace, and to standing side by side with the United States of America and the democratic community of the world. And today, on July 2, a day that symbolizes Kosovo’s democratic choice and its unwavering commitment to freedom, I have the honor of announcing a symbolic decision of our capital: On behalf of the citizens of Pristina, we officially declare July 4, 2026 as American Friendship Day in Pristina,” Rama said, KosovaPress reports.
During the event, the mayor of Pristina presented American professor Daniel Serwer with the Key to Pristina. Meanwhile, another American professor, Eduard Joseph, Besa Pinchotti, chief executive of the National Military Family Association based in Washington, as well as former US Navy serviceman who served in Kosovo, Sg.t Maj. Mario Marquez, were awarded the title “Goddes of the Throne” (Queen on the Throne).
In his remarks, Daniel Serwer, who has been engaged with the Kosovo issue since the 1990s, delivered strong political messages. He said the country must emerge from the political crisis that has continued for nearly a year and a half, a period during which institutions have not functioned at full capacity. According to him, a similar situation is also being felt in the United States.
Serwer stressed that Kosovo should elect its next president as soon as possible so that it can move forward with other issues.
“You are aware that Kosovo today has a political crisis. You have spent a year, a year and a half in a difficult situation where institutions have not functioned as well as you would have liked. I feel the same about our institutions in the United States. We are experiencing a crisis of confidence in precisely those ideals that you value so highly. I think we will get through this period. I hope you get through your crisis faster than we get through ours. Yours is less a crisis of values and more a crisis of normal political fragmentation. People here in Kosovo often ask me, and even when I came earlier this week I tried not to answer, but now I am more confident in my answer, so I will say it: I think you should elect a president. I think you should form a government. And complete this process. I am often asked what Kosovo’s priorities should be. And from our conversations here, even though we have spoken with dozens of people, not thousands or hundreds of thousands, I think there is a clear consensus: NATO now, the EU soon,” Serwer said, KosovaPress reports.
However, regarding NATO membership, he assessed that Kosovo faces a difficult diplomatic process, not only because of non-recognizing countries, but also because of the United States itself, which, according to him, currently does not have the issue on its agenda. He encouraged Kosovo politicians to work hard to bring Kosovo back into the focus of the US administration.
“A difficult diplomatic road to NATO awaits you, not only because of the non-recognizing states, but also because of the United States. You heard what Secretary Rubio said when he was asked about Kosovo, he said that ‘it is not on the agenda now.’ You will have to put it on the agenda, and put it there in a positive way by showing that Kosovo’s membership in the Alliance adds security, it does not diminish it. The same applies to the European Union. The United States has recently prepared a policy for the Western Balkans that does not mention your opinion. To me, that is unacceptable, because it leaves Europe unclear. Europe should never be detached from the United States. And of course Kosovo should not be detached from Europe. Therefore, I hope that as you become more serious about NATO, you become just as serious about the European Union. And that does not mean only passing laws and fulfilling the acquis, but also the Copenhagen criteria: democracy, rule of law and economic freedom,” Serwer said.
American professor Edëard Joseph also, although he was in Pristina, recalled the period when he had served as deputy administrator of UNMIK (the UN) in Mitrovica, which he said is still not 100 percent “settled.”
He stated that Kosovo Serbs in North Mitrovica are facing pressure from Belgrade, backed by Moscow and Beijing.
“I served as deputy administrator in Mitrovica for UNMIK, and there we saw very difficult and painful clashes. And, of course, the situation in that area is still not 100% resolved. We also know, as I said, the situation in Mitrovica and the difficulties there, including Belgrade’s influence through political structures and continuing tensions. I also know about the interference and pressures coming from Belgrade, also supported by Moscow and Beijing. But this is not a ‘top-down’ approach. It is not that we in America are higher up and tell you what to do. We are together on this journey. It is a partnership. Everyone has their responsibilities, we in the US and you here in Kosovo. And what we need to do is move forward together as partners,” Joseph said.

PDK chairman Bedri Hamza announced that he had a telephone conversation with former president Hashim Thaçi, during which they spoke about Kosovo, their families, friends, and the citizens who, according to him, still believe in the return of the former KLA leaders.
According to Hamza, part of the conversation also focused on the judicial process at the Specialized Chambers in The Hague, as well as the wait for the verdict to be announced.
“Justice may be delayed, but it must not be distorted,” he wrote, emphasizing his belief that on September 16 “justice will be served” and that Thaçi, together with his fellow fighters, will return free to Kosovo.
Hamza also said that during the communication he conveyed to Thaçi the greetings and support of the citizens of Kosovo. He added that the former president had also asked for his greetings to be passed on to all citizens.
“With the calm and confidence that characterize him, we ended the conversation with the hope that we will see each other in Kosovo very soon,” Hamza wrote.
At the end of his reaction, the PDK leader repeated the message: “The sun will rise again! For the liberators, for our glorious history, and for Kosovo!”
