According to Muharrem, Krasniqi is a particular politician in the region, placing the interests of the party and the country on personal ambitions. He emphasises that Krasniqi entrusted the candidacy for prime minister Bedri Hamza, showing an unprecedented approach to Balkan politics.
“Memli Krasniqi. Likely, this is the first politician, not only in Kosovo, but throughout the region, to be placed in record books. He did not fight for power and career, but left the prime minister's top position for candidate. How many times has this happened in a region where the war for power is ruthless?” wrote Muharrem.
Muharrem has shared part of an interview with the president of the Democratic Party of Kosovo when asked about his possible role in the next government, Krasniqi replied: “No role will I have. I will continue reforming the party. ”
Muharrem describes this as a new and unusual approach to regional politics.
This was something never before in the Balkans. An LSE-educated politician, whose focus is on reforms rather than the chair of power”, he has said.
Muharrem has said that despite domestic challenges, especially with party leaders at The Hague, Krasniqi managed to preserve internal unity and increase support for The PDK, bringing it to 22.46% of the vote, an increase from 149,000 in the last elections to about 200,000 votes currently.
But his work is not finished, nor is it near. Voters have rewarded it for its approach, strategy and political maturity, but reforms in the PDK must continue”, he said.
Muharrem emphasises that result confirms Krasniqi's strategy and approach are needed for The PDK, but underlines that reforms must continue to ensure the party's long-term success.
“This is an excellent result confirming that Memli Krasniqi's approach and path is appropriate for PDK. Today it is more consolidated than yesterday and potentially may be the main figure for the formation of the new government, in each variant”, Muharremi said.
According to him, the election results confirmed that Memli Krasniqi is the right man, and he must deepen party reforms, with professional and with integrity.
“It must strengthen the new PDK causes and continue developing programming and governing policies. These elections have confirmed that figures like Memli Krasniqi and many others similar in the PDK, including Lumir Abdixhik with his team, are the country's future. They must continue with the needed reforms, until Kosovo installs a new platform and political mentality, focused on programme, economy and pro-active governance, beyond the old “Serbia, war and/or pro-anti West.” has ended Muharremi.
