Barcelona vice-president Eduard Romeu said that the club’s board of directors did not discuss the dismissal of coach Ronald Koeman after the 0: 3 loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League, writes Zeri.info.

“The issue of Koeman’s dismissal was not raised on the board of directors. “We got a tough opponent at the most inopportune moment.”

“Once we fire Koeman, we will take a step back. That would be illogical. At the moment, there is no such problem “, said Romeu.

Several members of Barça’s board of directors demanded that Koeman be fired. Laporta does not believe in the coach, but he will not fire him yet. /Zeri.info

Deputies of the Assembly of Kosovo, in plenary session are reviewing the recommendation of the Committee on Agriculture, Forestry, Rural Development, Environment, Spatial Planning and Infrastructure for the dismissal of members of the Board of the Railway Regulatory Authority.

Chairwoman of the Committee on Agriculture, Forestry, Rural Development, Environment, Spatial Planning and Infrastructure, Fitore Pacolli said that the composition of this board is unprofessional, while adding that the Railway Regulatory Authority has not worked on modernizing rail transport.

Pacolli mentioned the stagnation of the operation of railway lines, except for the Prishtina-Peja.

“The Railway Regulatory Authority has failed to bring under control the illegal circulation of trains from Serbia towards the station in Mitrovica. Every year we have a decrease in the number of passengers in rail transport. During the period 2007-2020, we have reduced the number of passengers from 417 thousand to 58 thousand 819 passengers. “We do not have a proper analysis of why we have such a decline,” she said.

Asking the deputies of the Assembly of Kosovo to vote for the dismissal of this board, she said that failures have been found.

“It is worrying the existence of 268 illegal crossings on rails which are constantly endangering the lives of citizens, only during the period 2016-2020 48 people were injured while 11 people are dead. It is worrying the lack of placement of signaling signs in the respective places and with high risk for the lives of citizens and as a result today we have the construction of houses and residential buildings near the rails or the railway network. The Railway Regulatory Authority has neglected cooperation with the municipal level and security bodies. The Railway Regulatory Authority has violated the regulation for the licensed operation of operators in the rehabilitation of railways “, said Pacolli.

The Board of the Railway Regulatory Authority is chaired by Arsim Berisha, while the members are Gëzim Qerimi, Shkumbim Hyseni and Ilmi Ahmeti.

The Presidency of the Assembly has decided to hold the next session next week.

In the next session, the Presidency has decided that the dismissal of the RTK Board should be on the agenda, reports Zeri.info.

This was announced by the head of the PDK Parliamentary Group, Abelard Tahiri, who described the dismissal of the Public Television Board as a blow to the free media.

“In the next session that will be held next week, this majority has decided to continuously degrade the independent institutions in the Republic of Kosovo, so part of this session will be the dismissal of the RTK Board, a blow that “It is being given to a free medium, an important information institution for the citizens of Kosovo”, said Tahiri after the meeting of the Presidency.

He added that the Assembly has become an institution that serves only the family and close interests of the government, led by Albin Kurti. / Voice

After PDK MP Ganimete Musliu did not receive an answer to the questions she posed to Defense Minister Armend Mehaj, she demanded his dismissal.

According to Musliu, a minister who does not know what a minister is does not have what he wants.

“Deputies, please at least ask Vetëvendosje to dismiss Minister Mehaj. A minister who does not know what a minister is for “, said Musliu.

In the session that is being held in the Assembly, Musliu asked Mehaj why the husband of President Vjosa Osmani was present in the exercise of the KSF together with the American army “Defender Europe 21”.

“What military rank does the president’s husband hold? When he was invited and how many trainings he attended. Was there an invitation to participate and by whom. If he was invited as the president’s husband, why did he wear the KSF uniform “, are the questions posed by Musliu.

Further, she asked Mehaj whether all this is a violation of military protocol.

“Is this violation by the president for individual interests”, said Musliu.

While Minister Mehaj said briefly that he will not answer such a question, because according to him any attempt to undo the success of the KSF harms the country.

“Every attempt to undo this success harms us and does us no honor. “I do not want to be released and I do not have to give an explanation”, Mehaj replied.

Prindon Sadri’s participation in “Defender Europe 21” had aroused criticism, but the Presidency had justified such a thing by saying that he is a military member of the reserve component of the Kosovo Security Force and holds the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. / Voice

The Civil Service Union and the Public Administration Union have opposed the initiative of the Parliamentary Committee on Public Administration to dismiss the Independent Oversight Board of the Kosovo Civil Service.

They even say that they are ready to address the highest instances of international justice. On International Civil Servants Day they urgently demanded the proceeding of the Wages Law.

The President of the Civil Service Union of Kosovo, Mursel Zymeri, has expressed concern about the initiative to dismiss the Independent Oversight Board of the Civil Service of Kosovo, calling on President Vjosa Osmani not to allow such actions.

“We do not agree in any way and this issue if it continues by this commission and by the Parliament of Kosovo if approved, we will ask the highest possible instances, even from abroad that this action is not taken by by the Assembly of Kosovo. “I invite the President of the Assembly of Kosovo or the President of the country, Mrs. Vjosa Osmani, as the guardian of the Constitution to act urgently and not to allow such actions or to allow interference in the justice system”, he said.

Zymeri added that the only support in protecting the rights of civil servants has been the Independent Oversight Board. He stressed that 2021 is the first time that the government does not take any action to mark this day.

“After this conference, I will address the President of the Assembly of Kosovo with the request for a meeting and the ultimate request for the removal from the agenda of this item, that it seems to you that everything is fine, only this left unresolved and addressed. The issue of boards being discussed is another issue that does not belong to us. But the Independent Oversight Board is an interest, a direct violation of our rights. And this in one way or another is a salute that the government makes to civil servants. “To do what I want and you have nothing to do,” he said.

The President of the Public Administration Union, Ali Gashi mentioned the requests of the civil servants, emphasizing that the processing of the Law on Wages is urgent.

“We as two unions have assessed as a necessary need and as an immediate, urgent request is the drafting and processing of the Law on Wages by governments, and with special emphasis on this day we ask the government to urgently process the law in Parliament, as it is absurd to play with civil servants. “The urgent request of both unions is that this law be processed as soon as possible”, he said.

He has warned that if their demands are met with deaf ears, then they will take trade union measures.

“Keep your hands off the civil service, because you will face the power of the unions, you will face our power and you believe that it is not a small power. “Do not put us in an undesirable position, but if you put us we will react”, he declared.

For this, he announced that they had meetings, they sent a request to the Prime Minister, but they did not receive a response.

Both unions have demanded three additional salaries in the case of civil servants’ retirement, recognition of work experience during the 1990s, application of health insurance and signing of collective and sectoral contracts.

DETAILS

The President of the Football Federation of Kosovo, Agim Ademi and the Secretary General, Eroll Salihu, have managed once again within a few months to overcome a major crisis between them, which was expected to result in the dismissal of Salihu from the post of FFK secretary -së.

Yesterday (June 15) was held the meeting of the Executive Committee of FFK, from which was announced the dismissal of Salihu after deep and harsh quarrels with the president of FFK, Agim Ademi. But, this did not happen.

Even, in the announcement of FFK after the meeting of the Executive Committee, the case “Ademi-Salihu” is not even mentioned, but in the photo from this meeting, between Salihu and Adem is seen the member Vjollca Krasniqi, the only woman member of the Executive Committee.

“Zeri” learns that the item on the agenda at the last meeting was the dismissal of Eroll Salihu.

Otherwise, “Zeri” has exclusively reported that Eroll Salihu was expected to be fired by the EC.

Salihu himself had stated to the media after the report in question, confirming the disagreements.

“There are some disagreements in competencies between the chairman and the secretary. “Tomorrow the meeting of the Committee will be held and we will discuss”, stated Eroll Salihu for ‘Blic’.

But, sources close to the developments in FFK say that Ademi and Salihu have achieved a “forced peace” after being afraid of each other for publishing abuses that have been made within the football institution in recent years and for the abuse of official positions. .

It is learned that Salihu sent a letter to the EC members before the meeting took place.

It is even said that both of them have been warned and threatened by each other beforehand for publishing many things that the public does not know and that have happened within the institution of Kosovar football.

One of these secrets has to do with a letter that came from UEFA a year ago, through which the Ethics Committee requested from Ademi evidence of innocence due to the trial against him, in which Ademi was also sentenced a prison sentence, but since then the Appeal has already sent his case for retrial.

On the contrary, UEFA had made it clear that it would not recognize Adem’s mandate, which was kept secret not only by Adem, but also by Salihu.

In order not to make the worst happen, each of them has released “pe” to achieve reconciliation and continuation of cooperation, writes “Metro”.

This is the second time in a short time that Ademi and Salihu are going through major crises, in which it is said that there have been almost physical confrontations.

In February, there were reports of a physical clash between them, but Ademi and Salihu through a joint statement had denied the clash, but had confirmed the quarrels, disagreements and even high-pitched debates between them. /Zeri.info

The Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK), in the meeting of the Presidency, days ago decided that Agim Veliu be fired from the head of the LDK branch in Podujeva.

Veliu reacted to this decision on Sunday.

In a post on the social network Facebook, he said that the Central Presidency of the LDK made a decision, how scandalous and contrary to the Statute of the party, after arbitrarily appointing the candidate in the race for Mayor of Podujeva in local elections and at the same time delegates to him all the competencies to lead the LDK Branch in Podujeva.

The decision for dismissal says that he was not informed but was informed through the media.

“I was initially informed through the media about the arbitrary and illegal decision of the Presidency and Mayor Abdixhiku.

Whereas, today (Sunday) I was sent the scandalous decision signed by the party chairman, which is not only known for violations of the party statute, but also for spelling mistakes, perhaps out of haste to “justify” the dismissal of the chairman as soon as possible of the Branch in Podujeva “, said Veliu.

He further accused the party chairman Lumir Abdixhiku, saying that he was playing a dirty game.

All this masquerade of President Abdixhiku and his supporters in the Presidency is nothing but a dirty game and an attempt to camouflage the decision in the name of an alleged internal reorganization (read: internal cleansing), presented in the President’s Platform. of the LDK 2021-2023 “”, he said.

According to him, although someone from the Presidency tried to deny that this illegal decision dismisses the President of the Branch, the text of the decision itself denies such political dilettantes, sitting at the table of the Presidency of the LDK.

“All competencies of leading the LDK branch in Podujeva, pass to the LDK candidate.

The candidate leads with the Presidency of the branch, the branch office and coordinates the activities with the heads of the sub-branches in the Municipality of Podujeva “, it is said in the decision signed by Abdixhiku.

“Even, with this scandalous decision, it is intended to take away the competencies, not only of the President, but also of the Branch Presidency, which is completely defactorized according to article 4 of this decision, regarding the formation of the list for municipal assembly”, says Veliu.

He further writes that such an illegitimate decision, of those who voted for him and the one who signed it, can not be called anything but a serious attack on the most successful branch in all post-war electoral processes in Kosovo.

According to Veliu, neither the LDK Presidency nor its chairman can dismiss or appoint a branch chairman elected in regular election processes by the Branch Assembly./telegraph
