In the 6 October elections, Kosovo citizens will face a long list of political subjects for the vote.
The three largest parties -- the Democratic League of Kosovo, the Vetevendosje Movement and the Democratic Party of Kosovo -- are alone in the race.
While more competitive the race will make already declared coalitions in the CEC, AAK-P DS, Initiative - AKR-PD, as well as two coalitions by the Serb and Bosnian communities.
Civil society is praising that, as in past practices, their large number will not bring a winner who will manage to make government alone.
Voterw “No party expects to receive over 51 percent, 20 per cent or 25 per cent is their biggest achievement, and because of lack of broad coalitions, all parties will try and divide this 51 per cent,” is expressed by Zekirija Shaban, journalist and part of civil society.
After these elections they estimate that the coalitions will be made, not based on party ideology, but on the need to create the government.
“There's a tendency to bring together left and right ideology, but it's a lot of trouble with the government together, always such coalitions have not seen their ideologies, but only the best opportunity to come to power. Last Coalition PAN has been the parties that have mostly accused each other in public for years and in the last few minutes this coalition was reached, with the sole goal of coming to power,” states Arton Demhasaj, from society “Arise”.
And the next government will have the biggest challenge ending dialogue with Serbia.
Despite their parties' programmes, regardless of coalitions, the future government will have the biggest challenge to keep the Government more than two years, because whoever comes will have an extremely powerful opposition, and the powerful opposition is good for democracy but the challenge for your Government, after the agreement with Serbia,” added Zekirija Shabani.
A possible pre-election coalition was hosted by LDK-LVV, but the same was not the cause of the government's first post dispute.
But both parties expect the coalition to take place after the elections.
