More than three months after the elections, Kosovo still does not have a constituted Assembly. An unbelievable 49 attempts have failed to elect a parliamentary president, with the deadline for constitution set for July 26. The political deadlock is complete, and legal loopholes in the constitution and laws have left the country in chaos. The candidate from the Self-Determination party, Aljbuljeni Hadžiu, lacks the necessary majority, while opposition parties refuse to cooperate and demand new elections. Kosovo’s President Vjosa Osmani has announced she will appeal to the Constitutional Court if the situation is not resolved, which could lead to radical decisions, including calling for early elections. Diplomatic efforts by Western embassies have yielded no results, and the political scene is trapped in a power game and refusal to compromise. This saga has become a disgrace not only for the elected MPs but for the entire state of Kosovo, which, 17 years after declaring independence, remains stuck in an unprecedented political crisis. If you think this is just another political drama, think again — the future and stability of the whole country are at stake. So, what do you think, how much longer can this farce last? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s for new elections and who’s for a deal!
