Vjosa Osmani, deputy head of the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) announced new meetings with the Vetevendosje representatives soon to reach a deal and form new government.

Osmani implied that they are ready to consider meetings with the Vetevendosje even beyond the deadline they set on Sunday. “We will use these two or three days efficiently. Everything depends what will be discussed in coming 2 or three days to see how we can move forward,” she told media on Friday.  

The LDK gave Vetevendosje a deadline until Sunday to decide whether they want to accept or reject their proposal on coalition. The two parties are negotiating as the President of Kosovo Hashim Thaci has nominated on Monday the Vetevendosje leader Albin Kurti to form new government. According to the Constitution Kurti has 15 days to present his cabinet before the Parliament. The LDK and Vetevendosje despite continuous negotiations over the last three months have failed to reach an agreement on sharing of powers in new institutions. Media reported on Friday that the Vetevendosje is willing to reconsider the Speaker’s post claimed by the LDK and dismiss their member Glauk Konjufca who was elected on 26 December last year during constitutive session of Parliament. But the Vetevendosje refuted these reports stating that Konjufca will not be dismissed. /GazetaExpress/
