He made these comments at the political parties' table, where he has been discussing dialogue with Serbia and empowering the parliamentary republic.
“Taking into account that dialogue is taking on a major policy agenda, we have proposed that dialogue guide the Kosovo Parliament, the establishment of a parliamentary commission to monitor dialogue, where the negotiating team will report. If he's ordered by the Parliament, he can fire anyone. We don't know why you're going into dialogue. There is no agreement of political subjects with this text”, he said.
Ahmeti, who is the leader of this table with Albanian political parties, has indicated that the PDK and the Initiative seek consensus on the dialogue process, but that they disagree with certain provisions.
“In the Constitution there is no dialogue with Serbia for mutual recognition. We are the parliamentary republic. We think in the Constitution it is clear that the Parliament should lead this dialogue. We're not asking for a unity team, but we're asking that we be at least active overseers. We are demanding that Kosovo's Assembly be host, there can be no negotiating carriers without the Parliament's role appointed. The Kosovo government today is a minority government, does not have the simple majority”, he said.
According to him, if the Kosovo Assembly decides President Hashim Thaci to lead the dialogue, then it will not have PSD support.
“No, we have said our position, we have said that Thaci does not present the image of unity”, Ahmeti said.
