The Constitutional Court two months ago has accepted President Hashim Thaci's request to clarify whether the agreements signed by the head of state should be submitted to ratification in the Assembly or not. Recognitions of legal cases say the Constitution has exceeded the deadlines to examine this subject. They also say Thaci hopes that the Constitutional Guardian will enable him to bypass the Parliament for Agreement with Serbia.
More than two months ago, Kosovo President Hashim Thaci had asked the Constitutional Court to make the interpretation of Article 18 of the Constitution, in which international agreements are reportedly ratified by two-thirds of the Kosovo Assembly deputies' votes. In this case, the head of state had asked the Constitution to establish whether such agreements are considered ratified as signed by the president or should also pass to the Assembly to vote with 2/3rd of MPs' votes, writes the newspaper “Zri”.
Despite this, the Constitutional Court has already exceeded the timetable set with the Constitutional Court's Labour Rule, not having yet come up with an interpretation about the issue. Despite that, the Constitution has told the newspaper that the decision on the head of state's request will be taken after reviewing all constitutional aspects of the issue tabled. Meanwhile, justice system experts consider that following the passage of the Constitutional deadline, the public should announce whether it has required additional time to address the issue in question.
