Opposition representatives used pepper spray and teargas today in an effort to block the work of the Kosovo Assembly. Vetevendosje MP Albin Kurti released pepper spray in the direction of the government ministers which then led to the ruling coalition MPs vacating the hall where the session was taking place and resuming it in an alternate space. Opposition called the session in an improvised setting illegal but this did not prevent the legislators from adopting the draft law on Kosovo’s budget.
