Krasniqi: Election retreat in northern municipalities has been wrong

The “Nor the LVV had a candidate within the regular deadline, called for additional deadlines, and at the moment when elections should be held, Kurti and Osmani also withdrew from the” elections.

“has been absolutely wrong to withdraw because I understand the tension between legality and legitimacy. The elections may not produce very legitimate governance because of the nonparticipation of most citizens, but legality would be absolute”.

“There was no constitutional possibility to postpone this election, made for political reasons”, the chairman of the election said. PDK, Memli Krasniqi.
