"What about those Albanian idiots"/ Ministry of Foreign Affairs,

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has described as untrue the message of Minister Ferit Hoxha published in the media, in which he described Albanians as "idiots". The ministry's response states that the message "has no connection with reality".

"The spokesperson for the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs expresses regret for the publications distributed today on social media, which claim to present internal communications, but which are in fact untrue. They have no connection with reality. The communication served to the public is non-existent.

"It is regrettable that such allegations are fabricated and then amplified by political actors in the country. This is not the first time that allegations have been made in the public arena that members of the foreign service allegedly violate their oath. Minister Hoxha expresses full confidence in the honesty and professionalism of the Foreign Service, which continues to fulfill its duties with dedication, focusing on its work and not being influenced by deliberate noise and smoke," the ministry's response states.

MP Belind Këlliçi previously stated that Ferit Hoxha cannot be Tirana's chief diplomat if he thinks this way about Albanians.

He emphasizes that this is unacceptable language and that the minister must be held responsible for the way he expressed himself about Albanians. /CNA
