Sejdiu's Konjufca clash over early elections issue

VV Group parliamentary chief Glauk Konjufca said the tables have started at this end and then this has declined to the PDK table.

But Vetevendosje will bring this topic back to the table. Otherwise, they will not participate in such tables. While saying that in view of the positioning of government and power, it is not very optimistic, which will achieve compliance with the topic in question.

“Tryesa, however, must have an epilogue and cannot drag it on forever. Then after this VV table, if we have similar positions and if the tables are counterproductive, I think there are no more reasons to be held. Lost their meaning. If they don't want to talk about elections, then the election battle will be carried to the Parliament of Kosovo, where it belongs. So we, of course, the real battle to take the country to elections is in the Parliament of Kosovo. But if we just prove that these tables are no longer productive, then we won't participate ourselves in the future. This idea has started the tables. The idea was elections. Had it not been the election, called from the LDK table, the VV would not have attended at all. But we're exactly what the elections were about. The subject from PDK was diverted to the second table. VV is doing third and wants to return the main theme to the election table. Whoever doesn't want to participate, don't let him participate is their work”, Konjufca said.

But former Konjufca colleague Dardan Sejdiu on Monday has said that now is no time to discuss early elections.

According to Sejdiu, Kosovo has many other topics of importance. While the VV's insistence on discussing new elections without having numbers, according to Sejdiu, it is opportunism and population.

We as the Social Democrat Party have expressed our position, which will be on each table where we are invited... consensus on elections with a Government, which will not have elections, cannot. And we just have to get out of these popular themes, handling the election option. As the numbers are, then the motion starts and we end up falling by government. As long as there are no numbers, any treatment of this subject is just an opportunity and potential to get away from topics like these, topics that we can fix with the assembly... We are here for, this government every day shows that it is not doing the job. But are we to stay in this discussion without having numbers, I think this is both opportunism and population”, Sejdiu has declared for KosovaPress.

But for Konjufka, his former colleague's statements by Vetevendosje are understandable, as the party Sejdiu is now part of, says. PSD is not ready and prepared for elections. Konjufca says the party, which is part of which is fully prepared for elections even after recent developments that have occurred, where part of the party's deputies left.

He even says that the elections will be the ones where people's votes will show the country to all who tried to harm the VV.

“Po is understood for PSD. Each is understandable. To The PDK is understandable because power is of interest. To The PSD is understandable because it is not prepared for elections. Everyone has them. But for Vetevendosje, which is prepared for election, it's better to go to the elections. I think it's prepared. Because after all, people give them meaning. People vote. Who's got it right. Did the movement that has continued, or the others that came out of it? ...I think the shocks we've suffered are restored. There's no one in Vetevendosje that says I'm going out and now the VV won't exist, or it's gonna get damaged. Vetevendosje is based on its program, its ideas, its values, and it's the group of people who are willing to push those ideas forward. He who can't push them forward will surrender or follow his way. I guess the people by their vote, I'll show the country to those who tried to harm Vetevendosje, Conjufca said.

The table VV has invited for Friday is unknown whether parties in office will participate.

Otherwise, on Monday, PDK Parliamentary Group chief Memli Krasniqi has said that they have not yet received an official invitation, for the table in question, and that he cannot respond exactly how they will act, will be part of this table or not. It stresses, however, that the purpose of such tables has been to reach a broad consensus on the topics of national importance and not to discuss elections that you think should be held on the legal deadline.

We have yet to accept the official invitation. So I can't answer exactly how we do it. What I can say now is that the purpose of the tables has been to reach a broad consensus on national matters and not to be discussed with elections, which we think should be held in the regular legal deadline”, Krasniqi had said over the telephone.
