Leader of Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK), Isa Mustafa, said that the party’s thirty MPs are unified in their objectives.
Mustafa said LDK MPs don’t consider a government with Alliance for Future of Kosovo (AAK) and Initiative for Kosovo (NISMA) as an ideal solution but accept it as a better and necessary alternative to stop a Thaci-led government and begin changes in strengthening the legal state.
Sources told Gazeta Express that Andreas Schockenhoff, a close associate of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, told LDK and AAK leaders, Isa Mustafa and Ramush Haradinaj, in a meeting in Pristina today that Kosovo needs to continue dialogue with Serbia and implement agreements reached in Brussels.

The two opposition leaders asked for Germany’s support to convince minority communities to join their coalition.
