English - The Democratic Party of Albanians, DPA, has threatened to leave Macedonia's parliament in protest after one of its MPs, Orhan Ibrahimi, exchanged punches with Rexhail Ismaili, an MP from the junior ruling party, the Democratic Union for Integration, DUI. Several other legislators then joined in the brawl. Both parties said the other was to blame for the incident, but both refused to go into details about the fight. Unofficially, the fight was preceded with verbal insults from both sides. “We demand criminal investigation into the DUI legislators,” the DPA MP, Imer Aliu, said at a press conference, insisting that DUI legislator started the fight. DUI legislator Artan Grubi told a different story, holding the DPA legislator responsible. He said that his colleague Ismaili had required medical help after the brawl as his eye had been hurt. To back up his claim, he said the ethnic Albanian village of Lipkovo still has no drinking water, even though artificial lake next to it supplies water to the nearby town of Kumanovo. The remark apparently sparked an exchange of insults between the two legislators after which both MPs could be seen on video footage published by 24 Vesti exchanging punches. Other legislators tried to separate the two, or took sides, making matters worse. | Shqip - Përleshje me grushta shpërtheu sot gjatë punimeve të Komisionit Parlamentar për Financat dhe Buxhetin në Maqedoni.
