In a statement to the media, Westerlund has cited the current stalemate in the Kosovo Assembly and has stressed that, despite victory in the election, the first party in this case, the Vetevendosje Movement can't govern alone without securing the parliamentary majority.
Well, I won't comment on the details, because you have these discussions between the outgoing government and opposition. If we go back to previous elections, we get the 2001 and 2004 elections, then we had a political party that had about 45% of voters, both in 2001 and 2004. Though they had 45%, they eventually had to compromise to form a Government. So, as we all know, you have to have more than 50% to form a government. So, after all, even though we have the largest party, it has to make the compound and form alliances with other political parties. So this is my message to all political parties: that you have to compromise”, he stressed in an interview on the “Gazeta” on Kanal10./Periscopi/
