33 reasons to vote for 33-year-old Vjosa Osmani (Koha Ditore)
Political analyst and columnist, Halil Matoshi, lists 33 reasons why the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) should vote for Vjosa Osmani as the party leader in the upcoming internal elections. Matoshi argues that LDK needs to undergo a deep reform and become a normal political party, competitive and discard the aura of a national movement. At present, remarks Matoshi, the party is undergoing a democratic race for consolidation of its internal structures but the race for party leader is likely to develop in such a way as to enable the Isa Mustafa to remain in the post for another mandate. One of the anticipated contenders for the post is also the party’s most voted woman MP, Vjosa Osmani, and while Osmani will have a major challenge in overcoming party’s “unintelligent” and “rotten” structures, there is wakening up of the LDK electorate which can result in Osmani winning the party’s top post. However, even if Osmani doesn’t manage to win this race, in Matoshi’s view she remains a brave woman leader that the Kosovo politics needs.
