The writer of this op-ed, Bekim Baliqi, notes that the blockade at the Assembly of Kosovo, is being considered as the start of political crisis,  that of Pristina Municipal Assembly is leading towards crisis of municipal governance, while the blockade at the senate of the University just adds another crisis.

The Kosovo Assembly Serb MPs announced today that they will boycott the Assembly’s session because as they say, they fear violence in this institution. The reason for this, according to Serb MPs, is that the opposition used scalpels today to uncover some paintings in the lobby of the Assembly. They added that they fear that the scalpels can be used for other purposes.

The front-page editorial of this daily notes that it has become a routine to seek help from those that Kosovo politicians call with extreme servility “international friends,” every time that they face crisis. “The same is happening with Assembly blockade which is consequence of the abuse of the dialogue with Serbia, producing in this manner illegal, anti-constitutional and dangerous agreements for the stability and functionality of Kosovo… Incapability of the current political class to overcome the status-quo, means failure to keep a state.

The Deputy Speaker of the Assembly, Xhavit Haliti, during a TV show today said that no one knows precisely who will be indicted by the special court. He said that it is important that Kosovo has accepted the establishment of this court. According to him, names that were mentioned in the media who might be indicted by this court are pure speculation. He also said that the allegations about organ trafficking during the war in Kosovo are not true.

Instead of an editorial, Gazeta Express carries the speech of its editor in chief, Berat Buzhal, during a gathering of the media representatives and those of the civil society, invited by Assembly Speaker, Kadri Veseli, to discuss the blockade of the Assembly of Kosovo.
