Kosovo’s government dropped plans for a parliamentary vote on a bitterly contested law on establishing its definitive border with Montenegro on Thursday after coalition allies stayed away from the session.

The row has fueled months of violent clashes in the young country, including the firing of rocket-propelled grenades at parliament.

“We are taking this vote off the agenda for today,” Prime Minister Isa Mustafa said after 11 lawmakers from his ethnic Serb coalition ally scuppered the law by not showing up.
