The leader of the Democratic League of Kosovo, Lumir Abdixhiku, said that the only solution to the political crisis is new elections. He said that the nomination of Glauk Konjufca for prime minister from the ranks of the Vetevendosje Movement only prolongs the political crisis, while he called on him to admit that he does not have a parliamentary majority.

Abdixhiku, at a press conference on Wednesday, said that in Kosovo there cannot be a minority government, while he referred to the Vetevendosje Movement as a “sect party,” KosovaPress reports.

President Vjosa Osmani on Tuesday nominated Glauk Konjufca for prime minister, after the failure of LVV leader Albin Kurti to form the new government during the extraordinary session in the Assembly on October 26.

“Now a minority government is being proposed as a solution for a transitional period to address state issues. They call it transitional unity, and of course, it is imposed, not through party discussion and dialogue, but through the decisions of one political party. We are late. Serious parties should have considered our proposal on time. Besides being late, there can no longer be a minority government in Kosovo. Since 1989 in Kosovo, the majority decides. LDK reminds that the minority cannot decide for the majority and the people. In democracy, the minority is called the opposition and not the government, because you cannot be a minority in government. In democracy, the minority does not divide the budget, does not pass laws and does not impose policies, and cannot block the citizens’ will for a free vote. Not even with meaningless delays like this second nomination. Every legitimate government must represent the citizen majority. When this majority does not exist, the country must return to the sovereign, or the citizen. This is the essence of democracy. What is being proposed today resembles a monarchy. In a monarchy, the mandate is inherited from father to son. From Albin to Glauk,” he said.

According to him, the imposition of a minority government by LVV is undemocratic, while he said that LDK has no vote for Konjufca.

“Glauk Konjufca, with an inherited nomination in the current political circumstances, clearly and correctly understanding the citizens’ will, must be honest with himself. Much more, and far more, than his chairman. To state that he does not have a majority for prime minister… It is not the end of the world to say that we do not have a majority. Dragging the days, these 15 days, when you know you have no majority, is a conscious deepening of the crises. Then it becomes too late to address them. The sooner Konjufca and LVV and their sect stop wasting the days, the sooner the crisis will be resolved and a new government, a new budget and citizens’ legitimacy will come at the head of the state of Kosovo... Today the only remaining solution is new elections. Any delay in this direction is simply a political tactic... Our deputies are free to act as they wish, but despite the speculations of the last few months that our deputies are going here and there, believe me we have not threatened them and they have been free to decide as MPs regarding their vote, but it is the conclusion of everyone that the minority cannot decide for the majority,” said Abdixhiku.

Speaking about the possible date of the new elections, he said that calculations about specific dates have no impact on the electoral process.

“Calculations for specific dates have no impact on the electoral process. LDK came out as the first party in the diaspora in the local elections. But should we organize elections on New Year’s night, half celebrating and half guarding votes? Should we be guarding the boxes on New Year’s night to see who keeps them?” he declared.

Alongside this, he said that he expressed to President Vjosa Osmani his readiness for the continuation of this year’s budget for the first three months of 2026.“If there is political agreement among all political parties that we are going to elections, and since we are going to elections, we should avoid a rather dark scenario. Since that scenario is not guaranteed, we can consider a solution for extending last year’s budget. I have expressed this readiness to the president and am in contact with other political parties about it,” Abdixhiku concluded.
