Chief for Dimal Basha: Even if he were elected president of the Parliament, he could not become a U.D.

“Even if Basha was elected Speaker of the Parliament, he could not become the president's task counsel based solely on this position”, Kryeziu stressed.

He has recalled that the Constitution (Nen 90) regulates only the case when the president can temporarily not exercise the post, and then duties are passed only by a presidential decree or by a vote of two-thirds of MPs. But, according to him, the Constitution remains silent on cases when the president resigns, expires his mandate or changes his life without his successor being elected.

In this context, Kryeziu warned that on April 7th, 2026, when President Vjosa Osmani's mandate expires, Kosovo could face an extraordinary situation -- the country would have a government in office, but neither a functional Assembly nor a president nor a task manager.

The distribution of the Assembly ceases to exist even the mandate of the Speaker of the Parliament. After that date, Dimal Basha, or anyone else who may have been Speaker of the Parliament, is no longer a public official, but ordinary citizen”, he stressed.

Kryeziu described this legal vacuum as a major problem for the state and said the solution lies in changing the Law for President of the Republic, where success should be clearly determined in cases where the president's post remains vacant.

This legal change is a must and enormous state interest. The state dares not be improvised or experimenting”, the former judge of the Constitutional Court has concluded. /Periscope/
