Periskopi(6 years ago)
(6 years ago)Kosovo Assembly MPs, issued by the October 6th elections, will again address their seats to elect a new government after the fall of Albin Kurti's vote of non-confidence on the part of the ruling coalition partner, the Democratic League of Kosovo. And the latter is that [...]
And the latter is expected to lead the country if it gets the 61 votes needed for the coalition government with the AAK, Initiative, Serbian List and other non-Serb communities. While the opposition PDK is expected to join the Vetevendosje Movement, which led the country for only 51 days, thus becoming the government with the shorter mandate in the country since the first elections in 2001.
The government Kurti, which collapsed on March 25th, was the result of the coalition between the Vetevendosje Movement and the Democratic League of Kosovo.
Kurti-led government has backed 66 deputies, while there have been 10 abstentions and none against them. Before the vote, opposition parties -- the Democratic Party of Kosovo, the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo and the Social Democrat Initiative -- have launched the Assembly Hall.
Following the vote of the new Kosovo government and taking the oath of the prime minister and cabinet, Albin Kurti said a new chapter for Kosovo begins.
But this new chapter did not last long and ended when the first of the Government dismissed Interior Minister from the LDK ranks Agim Veliu because of his declaration of the state of emergency proposed by President Hashim Thaci because of the coronary pandemic.
Thus, Isa Mustafa's party decided to end the competition with Vetevendosje Movement, demanding the formation of a new government.
The Vetevendosje movement gave no name in all five letters sent by President Hashim Thaci for the mandate's name to thus create an opportunity to form a new government as the first winning party.
All this prompted the head of the country after five letters issued the decree for the mandate's name, which it awarded to the LDK as the second party in the election.
The decree of the country's first was not unconstitutional by the Vetevendosje Movement, which sent it to the Constitution, waiting to make a decision in favor of its request.
The Constitutional Court, after initially suspending the decree until May 28th, eventually granted President Hashim Thaci's right.
All this is expected to end at today's Assembly session, where Avdullah Hoti is expected to be voted in for prime minister, which exactly Albin Kurti had fired shortly after the vote to oust his government.
