The Government of Kosovo is expected to complete its mandate by February 2025, after failing to reach a consensus with the opposition parties for the dissolution of the Assembly. Although the Prime Minister, Albin Kurti, has expressed his preference for the elections to be held in the fall, this is seen as impossible by political analysts.
According to them, the Law on General Elections foresees that regular elections be held no earlier than 60 days before the end of the mandate, while they consider that the opposition is not expected to have motivation for snap elections, after the failure to hold them in June.
However, in the ruling party, the Vetëvendosje Movement, they show their readiness for elections whenever the opportunity arises within this year.
The MP of VV, Fitore Pacolli, tells KosovaPress that whenever there is agreement between the opposition parties, they are ready for elections.
However, the political analyst, Artan Muhaxhiri, is skeptical about snap elections in the fall or regular ones.
He tells KosovaPress that there is no opposition momentum for snap elections to be held in the fall.
According to him, the opposition is divided to interrupt Kurti’s mandate, while he says that based on the legislation, it will be impossible for regular elections to be held in the fall.
Also, the analyst, Arbnor Sadiku, says that the Kurti Government will be the first executive to finish its mandate to the end.
He even predicts that the ruling party, VV, will align with PDK in a future government coalition.
During this week, the chairman of the PDK, Memli Krasniqi, made it known that according to them, the opportunity for snap elections has been exhausted, after the failure of the distribution of the Assembly within the month of May.
LDK and AAK have declared against the dissolution of the Assembly. They demand the resignation or dismissal of Prime Minister Kurti and then the self-resignation of MPs.
Prime Minister Albin Kurti has expressed his readiness for snap elections within this year, but only through the dissolution of the Assembly.
