Albanophobia

Albania's foreign ministry has condemned a wave of killings of Albanians in Greece and has urged the Greek Government to "stop the hate language that followed the events".

Two violent incidents have been recorded in Greece allegedly linked to the killing of an ethnic Greek, Kostandinos Kacifa, who was shot dead by Albanian police at the weekend.

According to the deputy Kosovo PM, the only explanation would be "a type of Albanophobia among certain European capitals and we would really need to look into how we behave in relation to the EU."

Speaking for Pristina-based Zeri, Hoxhaj added that "the EU has no reason not to conclude this process."

Protesters carrying Serbian flags and chanting anti-Albanian slogans prevented the showing of a film about Serb-Albanian relations in the city of Nis.
