Agim Doçi, poet and member of the jury at the ART Festival that gave the victory to Ronela Hayati, said in an interview that Ronela's song in "Eurovision" was the most dignified and that the claims that she won were numerous. But he did not explain why Ronela was eliminated from the international jury.
Doçi also made a strange statement when he said that Alban Ramosaj (came second) should represent the Republic of Kosovo.
"When someone told me why you did not give it to Ramosaj. Let Ramosaj as a Kosovo Albanian compete in Eurovision for the Republic of Kosovo. Europe mocks both Kosovo and us, because I can not bring a song that was a parody of the Tirana variety show as a team of 5 Norwegian people, give the wolf a banana. "These people from Kosovo have benefited from a commission of Halle people who accept your songs", he said.
Today came the harsh reaction of Alban Ramosaj. As he posted the video on Instagram, Albani described his statement as racist towards Kosovo Albanians and in the spirit of communism. He mentions the representation of Rona Nishliu in Eurovision which was ranked 5th achieving the highest historical result of Albania. "I wish you to be alive for the coming year and to see how an" Albanian from Kosovo "will represent us!" - Albani closes the article.
Full status:
"Dear Mr. Doci. (Also a member of the jury of the year-end festival where I competed with "Theje")
What should "kill" you is first the racism against the "Kosovo Albanians" as it is dividing us and labeling us, then the smell of communism that stinks from you in this interview.
Europe does not make fun of Kosovo or Albania, but of the elections we make and how we allow them to see us over the years. (Since the talk, we have a long list of individuals who make us proud around the world such as: Dua Lipa, Rita Ora, Ava Max, Bebe Rexha, Ermal Meta, Inva Mula, and many others)
And since you are happy to share us, let us go deeper into the nature of your point of view.
Was it the same "Kosovo Albanian" that raised us to the highest historical result in Eurosong, or did you forget? Do you remember the name Rona Nishliu?
As for what I am, I am an Albanian! that I even enjoy the name Alban from a father (light paste) very patriotic and with deep knowledge of our history and blood.
I speak 4 foreign languages, I have Albanian and Kosovar passports, I was born in Holland, raised in Albania, originally from Kosovo and residing in Spain, and I am much more Albanian than you and much more European than you.
You are no one to divide us and limit us to represent Mamane-Albania in Europe or anywhere!
I suggest you save brandy on TV and represent your age and tell us two or three wise things next time. I wish you to be alive for the coming year and to see how an "Albanian from Kosovo" will represent us! "
