The voluntary resignation of the members of the Kosovo Security Force is considered worrying by security experts and representatives of opposition entities, while the Ministry of Defense said that the resignation cannot have an impact on the operationality of the KSF, referring to the high numbers of recruitments.
During this year, about 119 members of the Kosovo Security Force have voluntarily left the army. This was stated by the Minister of Defense while reporting to the MPs in the Security and Defense Affairs Committee.
Regarding these figures, the opposition parliamentary parties, and the former chief inspector of the KIA, assessed that this is a failure of the Kurti Government, since according to them they are not able to meet the conditions of the KSF soldiers.
According to them, their voluntary resignation from the KSF did not happen because of food or family reunification as is being emphasized, but because of their lack of well-being and low salary.
The MP of the Democratic Party of Kosovo, Hisen Berisha, gave an example of a KSF soldier, who is the son of a martyr.
Berisha told KosovaPress that most soldiers are sworn on the blood of their parents, saying that he cannot imagine how such a soldier is forced to give up his dream and work as a security guard in a discotheque or as a taxi driver.
Meanwhile, the MP of the Democratic League of Kosovo, Driton Selmanaj, said that the Government is able to structurally demolish the existence of the state of Kosovo for personal and private interests.
Likewise, the former chief inspector of KIA, Burim Ramadani, has emphasized that the voluntary resignation of KSF members has become a kind of trend, an act which should be worrying for the Ministry of Defense and the Government of Kosovo.
On the part of the Ministry of Defense, the political adviser of the minister Maqedonci, Liridona Gashi, emphasized that not all resignations are due to salary reasons, because salaries have already increased, but, according to her, the reason is also the issue of family reunification or higher salaries in the private sector.
In recent weeks, KSF soldiers have faced food problems, since the contract for the last tender announced for this purpose has not yet been signed. /A. Shala/
