| dbo:abstract | Pristina (Albanian: Prishtinë; Serbian: Приштина, Priština; Turkish: Priştine) is the capital city of Kosovo. In the preliminary results of the 2011 census the population of Pristina was around 198,000. The majority of the population is Albanian, but there are also smaller communities including Bosniaks, Serbs, Romani and others. The surface of Pristina is 854 km². Pristina is known as the center of cultural, economical and political developments. The city is home of the University of Pristina, Pristina International Airport Adem Jashari, the Government Building and the Parliament of the Republic of Kosovo. Since December 7, 2021, the mayor has been Përparim Rama. Rama replaced two-term mayor Shpend Ahmeti. Ahmeti was faced with criticism on the first days in the office after he wrote a letter to The Ministry of Local Government Administration regarding an answer about the use of state symbols. His party, the VETËVENDOSJE! movement has strong disapproval for Kosovo's statehood and symbols. VETËVENDOSJE! considers these symbols as non-legitimate, hence it considers the symbols of Republic of Albania as the only ones representative. The Ministry of Local Government Administration returned the letter pointing out that the law clarifies the way the symbols should be used in public institutions. Ahmeti decided to keep the Kosovan flag but also added the Albanian flag in his office. One of the main issues in Pristina is the lack of useful water which is manifested with long and heavy controversy. Ahmeti promised to solve the problem within two years. The Pristina Municipality also faces problems with loaded administration, public transport, illegal construction, corruption, nepotism and clientelism. (en) |
