All eyes on the Court (Kosova Sot)

The paper’s front-page editorial argues that by addressing the Constitutional Court to clarify her competencies, President Atifete Jahjaga has avoided direct responsibility by choosing the easiest alternative. “Under these circumstances, the President could have been more flexible as far as communication with key politicians is concerned. Just because certain articles of the constitution create ambiguity, the head of the state cannot remain indifferent at a time when the country can be hit by constitutional crisis. The interpretation of the constitution is one side of the medal, whereas the other side involves political decisions that the President needs to make. The ball is now in the hands of the Constitutional Court.”
