Is in line with the current laws in Kosovo, with the violation of privacy because this issue has been trumpeted too long in Kosovo. I'm not talking about the concrete case because this is gonna be worth another time, but I have dilemmas here, I don't know if it's in full with our legal framework”, he said.

Arian Elshani, another member of the CEC from the PDK, has said the cameras will be borrowed from Albania's Central Commission, while in the coming local and parliamentary elections special procedures will be needed.

But, of course, this issue in terms of the upcoming parliamentary and local elections at the national level needs special procedures, so this is kind of a test, piloting we're using these cameras within the” polling, Elshani said, follow Express.

Meanwhile, CEC member from VV, Alban Krasniqi, has said that setting up cameras is part of two regulations.

He has said the secret of the vote is preserved, as cameras will be placed in forms and positions where the prosperity of the voting process is secured.

“Dmeth the deployment of recording cameras are part of two regulations, the one for the vote and the work of KVV). On the other hand, the new law is binding on him. The CEC wants transparency to increase during voting processes and counting, and this is in the form of that transparency. Of course, it is clear that the secrecy of the vote is preserved, they are placed in forms and positions where the prosperity of the process is provided, and whatever circumstances we need tomorrow, for results or other aspects, that is resolved. For the first time it's going down now, but regulations have been adopted and continued to be used in other election processes”, Krasniqi said.
