MPs who knocked themselves and Government

The 10th May date marks the collapse of the government led by Isa Mustafa, following a motion for her disbelief initiated by the Initiative for Kosovo, and supported by other MPs.

But, despite initialising and supporting the motion, some MPs failed to win enough votes again in the June 11th elections.

Enver Hoti's Valdete Bajrami are two deputies from the Kosovo Initiative, which initiates the motion, which has already remained outside the Assembly.

Valdete Bajrami Reasoning

For this, Valdete Bajrami, who has been head of the Initiative's Parliamentary Group, expressing pride in her work for three years in the Assembly, although she failed to get citizens' votes to be their representative again, has thanked those who have voted.

I want to thank all the citizens who voted for me, but this time it wasn't enough votes to be their representative in the Kosovo Republic assembly. I'm proud of the work I've been doing for three years as deputy and chief of the Initiative parliamentary group, and I'm also proud of all my attitudes that were in defense of the interests of the citizens and of the country”, has been put into motion for the newspaper “Bota today”.

Despite being no part of the Assembly, she says she respects the sovereign decision, and that it will continue working on the initiative's projects.

This was the sovereign's decision and I respect it, but despite what I'm not going to be in the convent I'm going to continue working on the Initiative projects, because the citizens of Kosovo lack the social democrat spirit and we are the only address to influence the improvement of policies that directly relate and influence the lives and well-being of citizens”, the former MP has declared.

Hoti: I'm glad I voted.

Saying the motion was a successful mission, former Kosovo Initiative MP Enver Hoti has expressed gratitude for citizens' votes, saying the race was strong.

“As far as the motion is concerned, I think and am convinced that the Initiative has carried out a mission to remove bad governance from the country, the weak leadership of governance, and that it has become extremely good at it that our idea of motion to overthrow the government has proved successful. It has been necessary, we are convinced, of leadership of the country. As for why I haven't managed to secure the votes for the MP, from what I have results I'm very well appreciated, I feel very good, the race has been strong. The recounting of votes has shown some fluctuations in the election outcome. I'm not the one who'd like to comment and address the finger, but I think it might be something beyond that, but I feel quite well and appreciated by the citizens' votes and I take the opportunity to thank those who have valued and appreciated the “contest, has declared Hot for the newspaper “Bota today”.

In addition to the Initiative, there have been other PDK deputies such as Nat Hasani, Shaip Muja, Rafet Rama, Raif Qela and Shukri Buja, who supported the motion for the collapse of the government, but that some were not on the candidate list, Raif Qela and Shukry Buja, while Nait Hasani, Shaip Muja of Rafet Rama, failed to get enough votes for the MP's mandate.

Shaip Muja not declared

Contacted by the newspaper “Bota today”, former MP Shaip Muja has declined to comment on the subject, while Raif Qela has said he has voluntarily resigned from running for deputy, as he wanted to leave the country to others.

While politicalologist Ramush Tahiri, in addition to the race within the coalition, he also cites cases of MPs that occurred in the past.

Last time it happened with MEPs Tal and Rrustem... it looks like those who stand back give them power as you need for political use. So it's a phenomenon of use for certain purposes. But it has also affected competitions within coalition”, Tahiri has expressed to the newspaper “Bota today”.

Meanwhile, the recognition of political developments in the country, Ilir Ibrahim, in a proposal for the newspaper “Bota today” has said that in these elections the phenomenon where voters have condemned establiment, without any programming or ideological definition, but also affecting pre-election coalitions.

We can also see this in the names of MPs who have managed to secure the votes to join the new parliament. We also had pre-election coalitions where political parties, except that they could not include on the list the same number of candidates as if they had personally run, there has been a fight by coalition party candidates between themselves. All of this has brought surprise not only to the election outcome, with the two parties so far larger, The PDK and LDK mark a major decline, and on the other hand we have seen an impressive rise in the VV and as a result of this many popular names of these parties, including those who have supported the motion to remain outside”, Ibrahim has declared.

Changing Political Thinking

On the other hand, opinionist and analyst Krenar Gashi says the recent elections have shown a beginning of a change of thinking and behavior of voters in Kosovo and that voters have not fallen prey to political maneuvers.

With the exception of the political scene itself, as a result of crises, collusions, unnatural coalitions and degraded governance, voters have decided to be more involved in this election and vote for change. The most intense engagement and involvement have caused voters to avoid making up for modern explanations of political subjects and seeing political maneuvers, for example. The no-confidence motion, such as they are - efforts at fighting for power. In some cases this has resulted in a punishment that voters have given politicians by not voting to”, Gashi has told the newspaper “Bota today”.
