The Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, has participated in the District Conference of Rotary Clubs in Kosovo and Albania, which have started the procedures for the establishment of the Rotary District covering Kosovo and Albania.

The Prime Minister has spoken about serving - as the commonality of Rotarians with government officials.

"Even we as politicians are at the service of others. Because even the word minister in its etymology from Latin meansservant, it means servant. Prime Minister, you are the first among the servants", he said and added that "while Rotarians are working every day to serve the community, we as the Government, through our policies, are aiming at the same objectives, where through various measures we are helping those who need it the most".
