Their needs are not a matter of political interpretation, but an obligation for immediate concrete solutions. I am against any divisive rhetoric. We are one PEOPLE. One STATE.

In parallel, representatives of our partners from AAK, Nisma, Lidhja p\u00ebr Prishtin\u00ebn, and PDK have also been appointed, reflecting an inclusive and functional approach.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the differences that have emerged regarding the coalitions, Rama pledged his support for LDK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cJust as I unconditionally supported the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) in the previous elections, I will support it in these elections as well, with the conviction that democracy, institutional stability, and state-building culture must be continuously protected and strengthened.
