In an interview for Express, Behxhet Pacolli, leader of the New Kosovo Alliance (AKR), says that overcoming the current political crisis would be easy if politicians would put interests of the state ahead of their private interests. Pacolli said the AKR, which failed to cross the election threshold in the last national elections, was consolidating its ranks and that a total reconfiguration would take place in September. Asked about reports that the AKR could be called the Kosovo Liberal Party in the future, Pacolli said, “we are a liberal party but I don’t believe we will change our name. We are a full member of international mechanisms of European liberals and I don’t believe it will be necessary to change our name”. Pacolli also said he believes Kosovo will go to early elections again as a solution to overcome the institutional crisis. “We have used all our capacities in the service of the people and the state-building process. We never took advantage of our position. We did not abuse the budget of Kosovo,” he added.
