35th attempt, MPs again fail to constitute the Assembly

For the 35th time in a row, the deputies of the Assembly of Kosovo have failed to constitute the new parliamentary composition resulting from the February 9 elections.

This is the 27th time that the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK), the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK), the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK) and the Serbian List have not proposed a single member to form a secret ballot committee for the Vetëvendosje candidate, Albulena Haxhiu, for Speaker of the Assembly, as Haxhiu has failed to obtain the necessary 61 votes in the open vote.

The deputies will meet again in 48 hours, namely on June 23, to continue the constitutive session, which began on April 15. The winner of the February elections, the Vetëvendosje Movement, has the exclusive right to propose a candidate for speaker of parliament.

The entity, led by Albin Kurti, insists that Haxhiu is the right person to lead the Assembly. But for PDK and AAK, Haxhiu is considered a divisive figure, and they demand that Kurti's party change its candidate.

The issue of changing the voting method from open to secret has been sent for interpretation to the Constitutional Court by the parties that were in opposition in the previous legislature.

According to them, the LVV's proposals are unconstitutional and they have requested the Court to impose "a temporary measure to prohibit the holding of hearings, until it addresses this issue as a priority and makes a decision."

More than four months after the elections, due to disagreements over the speaker of parliament, the country has been left without new institutions. Recently, the LDK, which came third in the elections, presented a 15-point plan for a unity government, inviting all parties to form such an executive, in order to get the country out of the crisis.

The proposal was rejected by the LVV, while the PDK and AAK have expressed their preference for forming a government with the parties that were in opposition last term - that is, excluding the LVV.

However, the issue cannot move to the election of the new Government of Kosovo without the Assembly being constituted.

Deputies must first elect the president and five vice presidents, for whom 61 votes are required, in order to then pave the way for the formation of the executive.

The international factor has called on lawmakers to form the new institutions as soon as possible. /REL
