The first is that this time there has been an improvement in gender representation and an increase in women\u2019s participation in these councils. This is reflected both at the municipal level, where representation is better, and among political parties, where there has also been an increase, which is commendable. Additionally, regarding complaints submitted to the PZAP about the representation of political entities in these councils, there were 11 complaints, all of which were rejected by the PZAP, confirming that the CEC\u2019s decision was correct,\u201d Krasniqi said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The early parliamentary elections for the Assembly of Kosovo will be held on December 28.
