Ambassadors of other friendly states have made similar statements.
Italy's ambassador to Kosovo, Nicolaa Orlando, has requested the presence of all political subjects at the session to be held for the president's vote.
Orlando has demanded that the hearing not be boycotted, and that the state's interest ahead of personal interests be put forward.

The session is expected to be held by 6:00.
