Why were they on separate floors in the stadium and why is there a grudge

Prime Minister Edi Rama explained tonight why he and Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti sat apart in the stadium when the Albania-Czech match took place. In an interview for "Opinion", Rama called it a matter of protocol, adding that he had no idea that his counterpart would be in Tirana that day.

Where does this grudge, this nervousness with Albin Kurti come from?

Edi Rama : I have no nervousness with Albin Kurti.

It seems even when Albini's name is mentioned that you get nervous.

Edi Rama: Absolutely, absolutely... These are useless conversations.

How are your reports?

Edi Rama: His name was mentioned only once and you can mention it several times and I am happy to talk about Albini because there are many things...

The pleasure wasted this already…

Edi Rama: No, not at all! Now, you are asking me about a very big issue, a much bigger issue than Albini and me because prime ministers come and go, but the ideal cases, the golden cases, the historical cases for you to catch a train that you think you have there all the time and then you're left, the train leaves, they don't come every day, that's why I'm so passionate when I talk about this because in the meantime I'm very informed about what dynamics there are on the side of the Euro-Atlantic community, I'm very informed about how they see and without them Kosovo cannot take a single step.

Even in the match with the Czech Republic, the Prime Minister of Albania sat on the second floor, the Prime Minister of Kosovo on the third floor, what happened in that match? Although it is unimportant, visually for the citizens it is...

Edi Rama: Now, I'm sorry we don't understand each other. I don't deal with the organization of the protocol, I had the three seats that I had myself, and I went and sat in the 3 seats that I had myself, and in the meantime in that special box, because then I also asked...

You didn't know that Albin Kurti had arrived in Tirana, no one had informed you?

Edi Rama: Absolutely!

Neither the protocol of Kosovo, nor the protocol of Albania?

Edi Rama: Absolutely! In the special box was not only Albini, but also a part of the members of the government of Kosovo, he was the deputy prime minister of North Macedonia, there was also our deputy prime minister and others, so they were talking upstairs and now what are these conversations?

This does not indicate that relations are not normal, as long as neither the protocol nor the Prime Minister of Kosovo informs you that he is coming to Tirana.

Edi Rama: I believe this is not a question for me, because when I go to Kosovo I inform everyone, who is waiting for me, who is not waiting for me, no problem.
