Vetevendosje defector and Pristina Mayor Shpend Ahmeti has been elected the new leader of the Social Democratic Party – a party formed back in the 1990s, which has enjoyed little success since then.
The Mayor of Pristina, Shpend Ahmeti, on Wednesday became the new leader of the Social Democratic Party, PSD, which he and a number of other MPs joined after leaving the main opposition Vetevendosje party.
Ahmeti won a second mandate to run the capital as the candidate of Vetevendosje. But following a number of disagreements, he and some 12 MPs resigned from the party and joined the PSD instead.
