Naser Sertolli says the agreement of the three parties with fewer votes to create a coalition, made it clear to the outgoing Prime Minister Thaçi that democracy has more than one possibility. However, he adds, Thaçi’s hopes are not completely lost. “My proposal in Facebook that the leaders of LDK, AAK and Initiative should lock themselves in some elevator, where their telephones do not work, was not just a joke,” he says. He adds that it would be enough if “some international friend” manages to convince only one of these leaders to give up the coalition.

The fact that leaders of the Democratic Party of Kosovo insist on their right to establish the new government, only shows that the road of LDK-AAK and Initiative towards creating the new government will not be easy. “PDK’s threat with the Constitutional Court appears more to be an effort to buy time and try in the meantime find some element of forcing one of the signers of the agreement for coalition to give up, or face consequences, for instance of some document on compromising file.

Sertolli considers that if extraordinary elections took place, PDK would be embarrassed with its low results. The only remaining scenario for this party would be the logic “if I lose, you cannot win.” They have already given concerning indications of breaching the coalitions reached in local elections. Such political maneuvers could lead the country towards crisis which could damage the grounds of the Republic,” he says. “Under these circumstances, Hashim Thaçi has two options: to insist on being re-elected or to prove that he is a democrat with western values and accept the fact that that the power does not belong to him by default,” writes Sertolli.
