Vetëvendosje Movement MP, Donika Kadaj-Bujupi, said yesterday that her party is considering returning to the Assembly after several weeks of boycott. According to her, they will be there to strongly oppose agreements on the border-demarcation with Montenegro and the Association/Community of Serb-majority municipalities. She said that there will be coordination and resistance from the citizens, opposition and some ruling-coalition MPs, to oppose “these dangerous agreements for Kosovo”.

The proposal of the President of Kosovo, Hashim Thaçi, to create a special commission for the Association/Community of the Serbian-majority Communities, was not welcomed by the three opposition parties. According to them, the proposal is not serious and it is a joke on Kosovo politics.

Kosovo Police has arrested today Vetëvendosje activist, Blerim Maqestena. According to Vetëvendosje, KP is seeking to arrest many other activists regarding Vetëvendosje’s action against EULEX in 2009. “Re-actualization of this case and many procedural and legal violations, proved that this is a political set-up process with the aim of political persecution of opposition activists”, notes a press release issued by Vetëvendosje. This party requests from the government and Kosovo Police to urgently give up the political arrests and detentions.

Opposition parties seem likely to stand firm in their determination to oppose the border demarcation agreement with Montenegro despite the European Commission's (EC) position that its ratification is a condition for visa liberalization. Vetevendosje MP, Albulena Haxhiu, said that this condition is unjust and added that such a demand was not imposed on other countries of the region before granting their visa liberalization. “We are not ready to make compromises with our territory”, said Haxhiu.

Albin Kurti has long been a thorn in the side of authorities in Kosovo. A vocal critic of Serbian rule, he is now a member of parliament not averse to using tear gas on rival MPs to drive his message home.

Member of the Kosovo Assembly, Ilir Deda, in a press conference today announced he was officially leaving the Vetevendosje Movement. He said the decision came due to conceptual differences with Vetevendosje over the last nine months. According to Telegrafi, Deda plans to form a new political party which is expected to gather a number of public personalities.

Dardan Molliqaj from Vetevendosje movement, spoke about the problems with the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK), and its leader, Ramush Haradinaj. Speaking for the public broadcaster RTK, Molliqaj said that Ramush Haradinaj cannot lead the “Alternative” list, being that he does not possess the purity nor wisdom to bring down what he calls “regime.”

The leader of the Vetevendosje movement, Visar Ymeri, has been arrested again today by Kosovo Police. Vetevendosje movement announced the news through a press release, where they also requested interruptions of political persecution.

They claimed that litigation towards the Vetevendosje movement, are set up and added that violence and political prosecution have become methods of the government in Kosovo.

Mayor of Pristina and senior member of Vetevendosje Movement, Shpend Ahmeti, today while commenting on opposition’s possible joint election list, said he believes the leader of the list and candidate for prime minister should belong to Vetevendosje. He said that the next candidate for prime minister of Kosovo, should be Albin Kurti. "The key is with Vetevendosje and it shall review and decide on future steps as Vetevendosje is the only party that is growing,” Ahmeti said.

The Spokesperson of the Vetevendosje movement, Frasher Krasniqi appealed to the two opposition parties, the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK) and the Initiative for Kosovo (NISMA), to stop flirting with the governing coalition.

Krasniqi also called during a press conference on the AAK and NISMA, to join them in the protest against the government. He said that vagueness and differences should be clarified by Ramush Haradinaj’s and Fatmir Limaj’s parties.
