The interim move for the Parliament ends today, eye and ear by Constitutional Court

Waiting for the end of that move, the country is awaiting a new Constitutional Court act, which is expected to become public today. This act of judgment will be crucial for the opening of the road to the Kosovo Parliament's constitution.

Acting Prime Minister and Vetevendosje Movement leader Albin Kurti has declared his party will respect the new Constitutional decision, regardless of its contents.

The “will inform us of what they thought would happen in 30 days. I don't know what the solution will be, but we said we'd respect the act of justice. It's a huge damage that Kosovo doesn't have,” Kurti has said.

Kosovo is in a deep institutional crisis following its failure to form new institutions, more than five months after the February 9th 2025 elections. So far, 54 attempts have been made to consolidate the Assembly since its first session on April 15th, but without success.

The Vetevendosje movement, though the 48-seat winning party, has failed to secure the needed 61-vote majority to elect the Speaker of the Parliament. Other parliamentary parties have refused to vote on its candidate, Albulen Haxhiun, reports Express, broadcast Periscope.

Kosovo President Vjosa Osmani has said on Tuesday that she has withdrawn a request to the Constitutional Court in July to seek clarification of what would happen if the Kosovo Convention was not constitutionalised by July 26th the deadline specified by the tribunal earlier through an act of trial.

She said the reason for withdrawing her request is the Serbian judge at the Constitutional Court, Radomir Lyban.

Osmani said that the appointment of Laban as a rapporteur in considering its request, “is not only disturbing, but also dangerous”.

I have made this as an immediate response to information already confirmed that as the rapporteur judge in this request Judge Radomir Lyban, for whose dangerous activity in 2018, 2021 and 2024, our security institutions have submitted clear and official information”, she said.

Osmani said that, according to information “which in 2021 and 2024 have also been shared with the Constitutional Court, this judge poses a threat to the national security of the Republic of Kosovo and is engaged in activities against the constitutional order of the Republic of Kosovo”.

Last year, Kosovo's Ministry of Justice had refused to appoint Ljubljana for notary, after accepting information from the Kosovo Intelligence Agency (AKI) concerning his integrity.

Osmani said he cannot disclose details about the danger posed to Kosovo's national security, Judge Labani, adding that this is the classified assessment of security institutions.

We can't split at the moment. Maybe later. It is classified documents that cannot be shared with the public now”, she said.

Who is Radomir Lyban?

Radomir Lyban is currently judge at the Constitutional Court of Kosovo.

He was appointed judge by former Kosovo President Hashim Thaci in August 2018.

Initially, in May 2018, Thaci refused to decree Laban until the completion of a thorough verification by the justice organs, but decreed it several months later.

In 2011, Laban was convicted by a court in Serbia of criminal bribery. He was sentenced to six years in prison.

In 2017, Serbia has sent them EULEX a request for Laban's arrest, but the mission had said it has no mandate to make such an arrest.

Radomir Lyban was nominated by the Serbian List to be the Constitutional Court judge until Kosovo Assembly deputies approved his choice in this position.

The mandate of Judge Ljubljana at the Constitutional Court of Kosovo is nine years.

A Constitutional Court judge can only be dismissed by the president of Kosovo with a proposal of two-thirds of the Constitutional Court judges, and only for committing serious crimes or serious contempt of duties.

Osmani stressed that, after withdrawing her request, it is likely that a lot of <x0 things will remain unclear, adding that he wants to encourage Kosovo's Parliament deputies to address the Constitutional Court on the question of the constitutional session, “with the hope that Laban is not assigned to their subject”.

In her judgment, which MPs ignored, the Constitution had not shown the legal consequences of such contempt. /Periscope/
