Kosovo faced a new challenge: House call for presidential election by 4 March

While there is a challenge ahead: Choose the head of state.

It has been talked about launching consultations, co-operation among all parties and an agreement towards a name for the new head of state, however, from the perspective of field connoisseurs, this political class, position and opposition, is being delayed towards launching debate on the president's issue.

This political class is leaving this issue for the last moments, so it would be needed as promised by the prime minister to start discussing with other parties -- the opposition. This silence is harmful, the opinion wants more transparency, more debate on the president's issue, and should not be postponed any further. It's urgent, it would have to be used every minute, every hour”, said RTK, prof. Mazlum Baraliu, the connoisseur of constitutional affairs.

Although consultations have not yet begun, at least unofficially, it remains to be seen whether this session for the president's election will be held by 4 March.

The hearing call for the president could happen at the end of February or early March 4th and then end or not, until 1,2.3 or 4 March, is expected to be seen. The procedure may begin, but it may not even begin, depending on the dynamics of political developments”, has said of RTK, Volnet Bugakku of the Kosovo Democratic Institute.

For a name to be run for president, at least 30 MPs' signatures must be secured, and also two-thirds of the votes in the Kosovo Assembly with a total of 120 seats. 80 deputies present in the hall make the necessary quorum, while if in the first two rounds of voting a candidate does not secure 80 votes, then the third vote will suffice for 61 deputies. / RTK/Periscopi/
