She has stressed that her stance remains unchanged and that the only requirement is the formation of Bosniaks' municipality.
No, no, no, no. The same request I have, I haven't changed since it was on my first date, that's how it would be. I don't think I'm gonna change any attitude, and they know it very well”, and Balje said in an interview for IndexOnline, broadcast. Periscope.
The MP has indicated that she is surprised to hear that Deputy Prime Minister Emilia Rexhepi has talked to Kurti about launching procedures for forming the Bosniaks municipality.
I heard two days before the elections that Deputy Prime Minister Emilia Rexhepi has spoken with Prime Minister Kurti that she is now ready to start procedures for the Bosniaks' municipality. When I heard that, I was surprised, because when I spoke to the prime minister, it was very opposed,” she added.
Balje has underlined that she is not ready to do political deals for support of the new government.
“
Under the Constitution, if the government fails to get the majority of votes in the Assembly, the president must within 10 days mandate another candidate. If the second attempt fails, the president is obliged to announce new elections, which must be held within 40 days of their announcement.
Currently, there are 11 days until the end of the 15-day deadline, in which the new government's composition and programme must be submitted for approval.
To form Government, Albin Kurti needs at least 61 votes. The Vetevendosje Movement, which has emerged the first party in the February 9th elections, has 48 deputies. Support comes from seven non-Serb communities' deputies and from MP Nenad Rassic.
However, the support of Bosnian MP Duda Balje, Egyptian Veton Berisha and the deputy goran Ademi Hoxha is still not safe. This makes it necessary for Vetevendosje to ensure at least five additional votes to form the parliamentary majority.
In Vetevendosje, they have left open the possibility of co-operation with the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) and other parties, including the Social Democrat Initiative. However, earlier negotiations with the Initiative, which has three MPs, have not produced agreements, as the party had demanded that the Speaker of the Parliament be nominated, Fatmir Limaj.
