Constitution of the Assembly of Kosovo/ Today the eleventh session

The members of the Kosovo Assembly are meeting today in the eleventh attempt to constitute the new composition resulting from the February parliamentary elections.

So far, MPs have only passed two items on the agenda of the constitutive session: the report of the Temporary Committee for the Verification of Mandates and the oath of MPs.

But the process has stalled at the third point: the election of the speaker of parliament.

The nomination for speaker of parliament is the exclusive right of the winner of the elections, the Vetëvendosje Movement (LVV), but in six votes, its candidate, Albulena Haxhiu, has not managed to receive the necessary votes, namely 61.

On May 3, MPs, for the second time in a row, refused to form a committee for a secret ballot for the new head of the legislative body, who was proposed by the chairman of the constitutive session, Avni Dehari, during the ninth attempt to constitute the Assembly.

In the tenth continuation of the constitutive session, the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK), the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK), the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK) and the Serbian List again refused to propose a representative who would ensure the smooth conduct of the secret ballot.

MPs from parties that were in opposition in the previous legislature said that the way the LVV is attempting to have the speaker of parliament voted through a secret ballot is unconstitutional.

Before the ninth attempt to constitute the Assembly, on May 1, the leader of the LVV, Albin Kurti, invited the leaders of the PDK and LDK to a meeting.

PDK leader Memli Krasniqi accepted the invitation, but after the meeting he did not announce a deal on how to move forward.

The parties opposing Haxhiu's name for parliamentary speaker have asked LVV to change its proposal for the position, so that the process can be unblocked.
