(8 years ago)Political parties, in power and opposition, continue to differ over the way dialogue should be approached, as well as the leading role of Kosovo President Hashim Thaci, in the final phase of dialogue with Serbia in Brussels, which is expected to conclude with legally binding agreements for both countries. Ahmet Isufi, [...]
Ahmet Isufi, chief of the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo's Parliamentary Group, whose leader is Kosovo Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj, told Radio Free Europe that political parties, power and opposition should express all their remarks and concerns, on the negotiating table, including objections to President Thaci's leading role in the dialogue with Serbia.
It's best to put this on the table, where all subjects will express their opinions and at the same time give power to the Assembly of the Republic of Kosovo, such as the highest state body, so that there will be a parliamentary control for the talks. Then, without prejudice, they can be placed and the lines on which to go”, Isufi said.
Isufi stresses that political parties should sit down and talk about achieving a unity in the approach to dialogue with Serbia.
“Political parties must sit at the joint table, create the platform and also make the team's selection, each taking responsibility, based on political and institutional power, and come up with a common position, because Kosovo, whenever it has emerged with unity, has come out stronger in the face of the risks it could have in the past”, Isufi points out.
Otherwise, opposition parties in general have so far rejected President Thaci as having the leading role of the dialogue process with Serbia. They have demanded that the leading role in this process be held by the Assembly of Kosovo.
