Vetevendosje’s candidate for prime minister and MP, Albin Kurti, commented on the recent power sharing agreement between PAN and AKR saying that the forming of new Kosovo institutions is now in the hands of the Serbian President, Aleksandar Vucic, implying that the coalition will still need support from the Serbian List to form the new government.

Self-determination movement candidate for the Kosovo Prime Minsiter, Albin Kurti said he is not against the dialogue, but thinks this dialogue should be held with Serbs from Kosovo, while for the Association of the Serb Communities, he said it is imagined as a new Republic of Srpska, Serbian media reported.

Kurti said that during the last six-years of dialogue there was too much investment and too little benefits.

According to him, “the time has come to think why it went that way. We need to talk with the EU about negotiations with Belgrade.”

Participation of Serbs, in the new government, requesting to have all the rights as stipulated in the Kosovo Constitution, Albanian elite considers as return of Belgrade to this area, Sputnik writes.

Although Ramush Haradinaj, leader of the coalition PAN and winner of the elections in Kosovo, informed Hashim Thaci a week ago, that he has enough votes to form the government, Thaci still did not entrust him a mandate.

Events in the Western Balkans twice cast a long shadow across Europe in the past century — first in 1914 and then in the 1990s. Both times, the forces unleashed by the carnage could not be contained within the existing international order. And in both instances, proffered solutions failed to resolve the underlying tensions that brought about the conflicts in the first place.

Croatia will not directly engage in the formation of the Kosovo army - as has been announced by candidate for Kosovo PM Alibin Kurti, writes Vecernje Novosti.

However, the daily - that refers to Kurti as "the leader of the Self-Determination" - adds that it learned from "well-informed military and political circles in Zagreb" that if the West gives green light to Pristina to transform the Kosovo Security Forces into armed forces, Croatia "will provide assistance first in military training."

Shkelzen Gashi, one of Vetevendosje co-founders, alongside Albin Kurti, speaks about its growth during elections, its past mistakes and their being ill prepared to govern, reports Kosovo 2.O.

In late 2004, a donkey was brought before Kosovo’s government building, and on it a banner reading “vote for me.” Three youngsters were leading the compliant donkey closer and closer to the building. There they would later express their severe opposition towards local politicians, as well as the first articulated form of opposition against the international community stationed in Kosovo.

Vetvendosje movement expressed once again that it is open to cooperate with the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK)  in order to create a parliamentary majority in case PAN coalition fails to form the government.

Vetevendosje representatives said that leaders of the two parties, Visar Ymeri and Isa Mustafa, have already talked on the phone but that their meetings have not started yet.

Our priority will be dialogue with the Serbs from Kosovo, we have an economic and social plan for the northern municipalities of Kosovo and we are not against the Serbs, but Serbia is against us, said leader of the Self-Determination Movement Albin Kurti. Belgrade based daily Danas published a summary of Blic newspaper interview with Albin Kurti.

The previous dialogue held with Serbia in Brussels did not set any conditions for Serbia, and internal issues of Kosovo were discussed, which is why the outcome could not have been just, Kurti believes.

After the recent elections, Vetevendosje movement appears to be the party with the biggest number of seats at the parliament.

The candidate for Prime Minister from the Vetevendosje movement, Albin Kurti, told Serbian weekly “Vranjske” that if he becomes the new Prime Minister of Kosovo, he would propose creation of a parliamentary commission which would consider the Brussels agreements reached between Pristina and Belgrade. Kurti said that an internal dialogue in Kosovo and in Serbia is required and added that he is not against reconciliation.
