No love connections, except for Government, the sooner the new government arrives Thursday's international pressure on LDK and VV.

German MP Chrisian Schmidt has said this is a crucial week for forming the next government in Kosovo.

He has said they are in Kosovo with his colleague, MP Pete Beyer, to be informed about recent developments, and for them, Chancellor Merkel will also announce.

“As far as government formation talks are concerned, I have led four sides of talks on forming government in Germany, in this case it is not meant to develop a love marriage. To illustrate what I said, one of Germany's federal presidents, one of the questions asked to him, has said that he loves his wife, so I mean it's not about forming love connections. What matters is that he has confidence between the parties, and that is serious. However, I would have had a recommendation, as well as my experience that I mentioned, there is a golden rule, that you as journalists may be desperate but I have to say: if the coalition talks are ongoing, the rule is the microphone, not the phone”, Schmidt said, I follow Periscope.

“We with those we have talked about, we agree that for a country that has just emerged from parliamentary elections, it is important to have a stable government and not have tactical games”, he has said.

The time we have chosen to visit Kosovo is very important. We after the parliamentary elections that were held in Kosovo think this is crucial weeks for your country because the period we are starting now is serious even for forming the Government. For us it is extremely important in our interest, to make it clear that for us, development in Kosovo is of great importance and we think that Kosovo's perspective on European integration is also important. I come from the party that is part of the European People's Party, and even from this one has been a visit to the interest to be held in Kosovo. Donald Tusk has asked me to come to Kosovo to be informed about the current developments and come along with my colleague, Beyer, and after this visit we have to inform Chancellor Merkel”, he said.

EU Call for LDK and VV

EU Office Chief in Kosovo, EU Mission Chiefs in Our Country and I EULEX has issued a joint statement.

They call for the rapid formation of the new government and institutions to continue with reforms in economic development, implementation of the EU-Kosovo Stabilisation and Association Agreement and dialogue with Serbia.

Full statement:

The constitutional session of the Assembly is scheduled to be held on December 26th. The October 6th general elections gave the people of Kosovo the opportunity to exercise its democratic right to vote and elect its leaders. That is the essence of the democratic process. We believe that the parties in question will reach the consensus needed to overcome the remaining challenges.

Kosovo must urgently continue work on reforms for economic and social development, as well as rule of law, implementation of the EU-Kosovo Stabilisation and Association Agreement and dialogue with Belgrade, which facilitates the EU.

A quick formation of the government is needed to advance these processes, in the interest of Kosovo and its people, and in accordance with the Constitution and the expressed desire of the electorate.

American Embassy: People are waiting for government formation

Immediately after the European Union Office's statement and EU mission chiefs in Kosovo, where formation of the new government is required and continuing with reforms and dialogue, the American Embassy has reacted.

They have agreed with this statement, saying citizens are looking forward to creating the new government and bringing in the promised changes.

“We agree with the EU: Kosovo's people are impatient for a Government that will bring positive changes”, said their post on social networks.

Meanwhile, the Democratic League of Kosovo and the Vetevendosje Movement -- even after more than two months when they passed the 6 October elections -- have not yet reached a coalition agreement. The LDK insists that part of the agreement should be the president's case as long as Vetevendosje opposes it. /Periscopi/
