The portal "Fjalët.com", which claims to be an online media outlet, has published an article in which an old statement by the leader of the LDK, Isa Mustafa, is presented, through which he presents his aspiration to become President of the country.
However, the same article published in this dubious medium contains the fabricated title "Isa Mustafa: Kosovo loves me and I love Kosovo, therefore the President belongs to me", claiming to present it as a separate part of Mustafa's statement.
In addition to the completely fabricated title, the article has content that does not correspond to current political events.

This article by this dubious portal intentionally contains this old statement by Mustafa published to present it as current, claiming to link it to recent developments regarding the position of the President, following the resignation of Hashim Thaçi.
