The Prime Minister of Kosovo Ramush Haradinaj stresses that it is not a practice to announce about whether he has the parliamentary majority at the Assembly or not. Responding to the statement of the Kosovo President Hashim Thaci, on whether the government has the majority to continue with its work, Haradinaj said “the practice of announcing if the government has majority or minority does not exist. It is well known how these things happen at the Parliament. For instance, if there are 61 votes against the government, then it is over. However, there is no reason for anyone to talk about it. The day when this happens, it will be known, but in this manner, to talk ahead… one does not make these statements. There are many discussions about this matter, each from their own corner and I stand behind what I told political parties, elections will happen someday,” Haradinaj said.
According to the Prime Minister, elections are not at all favorable at this current phase. “It is much better to use this time to complete some matters such as the army, INTERPOL, dialogue, liberalization, improvement of the situation in education and healthcare. So, I think that it is better for the opposition to redirect the competition towards these parameters than to remain on the competition which is a big issue in the capitals, while our lives do not depend directly from them,” Haradinaj said.
On the other hand, the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) demands that the political parties initially reach agreement on early elections. Spokesperson of this party, Besian Mustafa, told Radio Kosova that if no agreement is reached, then the no-confidence motion will be raised, demanding the votes of all parliamentary subjects.
