The acting Prime Minister of Kosovo, who is also the leader of the Vetevendosje Movement (LVV) – the party that won the February 9 parliamentary elections in the country – has begun meetings with minority political parties to consult on the formation of the country's new government.
This process began after the certification of the voting results, and the beginning of the constitutional deadlines towards the formation of the new legislature and government, as the President of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani, set April 15 as the date for holding the constitutive session of the Kosovo Assembly.
Kurti announced that on Wednesday he met with the leader of the New Democratic Party (NDS) from the Bosniak community, also acting Deputy Prime Minister, Emilija Rexhepi.
According to a statement from the Prime Minister's Office, Rexhepi "confirmed full readiness to continue cooperation" with LVV, and support for Kurti in his efforts to form a new government.
LVV claims that it can secure the 61 votes needed to form a new Kosovo government.
Meanwhile, two opposition parties, the Democratic League of Kosovo and the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo, have rejected the possibility of co-government with the LVV, while the Democratic Party of Kosovo and the Social Democratic Initiative have not set red lines for coalitions.
None of the political parties has enough votes to form the new government alone.
The LVV, but also the three other Albanian political entities that rank behind it, count on non-majority communities, which have ten guaranteed seats in the Assembly.
The Serbian List, with nine MPs, is not part of the calculations of any of the Albanian political parties for a possible governing coalition./ REL (A2 Televizion)
