Kosovo’s acting president Vjosa Osmani has dissolved the Kosovo Assembly and announced new parliamentary elections to be held in mid February.
In an exclusive interview for BIRN, acting president Vjosa Osmani discussed her new citizens initiative, her relationship with Vetevendosje and the future of Kosovo-US ties under the Biden administration.
Two prime ministerial candidates are now confirmed for Kosovo’s upcoming parliamentary elections with Enver Hoxhaj standing for PDK and LDK nominating acting prime minister Avdullah Hoti.
Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti has long stated that consultations will be held with Kosovo’s political parties to discuss the issue of Kosovo’s next president, but no date for the talks has yet been confirmed with parties divided over the best course of action.
For more than a decade, no Kosovo Government has completed its full mandate amid crises that have called into question the functioning of state level politics.
