Today, the Democratic League of Kosovo announced the new leadership of this party, which was appointed by its leader, Lumir Abdixhiku. Abdixhiku did not include 14 names from the old leadership in the new leadership. On the other hand, seven new names, the first of the LDK, were not considered suitable to be part of this leadership, which has 34 members. The same, as the LDK announced, will continue to be filled with representatives from the major branches of this party, writes Gazeta Express.
Besides the numerous departures and few arrivals that attracted attention, the new leadership also stood out for another reason. The reason is that the new leadership includes the names of Avdullah Hoti and Hykmete Bajrami.
The reason for this was the 'cold' relations between these two and Abdixhiku. The cause of these relations was the results of the LDK in the parliamentary elections, and the dissatisfaction of Bajrami and Hoti with the leadership of this party by Abdixhiku.
Regarding this situation, former Prime Minister Hoti, in recent years, has called for a new leadership of the LDK. He had assessed that since the time of former President Ibrahim Rugova, Abdixhiku has been the leader who has had the most ''decision-making discretion''. Hoti declared that the LDK must ''return to itself'', and that this party is not a party that ''takes the heads of party leaders'' but rather that it ''reorganizes itself after the election results''.
Hoti had even announced, after the December 28 elections, that he would run for party chairman. However, he did not take this step.
Bajrami had also expressed his criticism and dissatisfaction with Abdixhiku. Although not as openly and frequently as Hoti, Bajrami's positions regarding Abdixhiku's leadership had become clear.
Bajrami had even demanded Abdixhiku's resignation from the position of mayor after LDK's poor results in the December elections.
Bajrami herself resigned from her position in LDK after these elections, asking Abdixhiku to bear the same responsibility.
The 'cold' relations between the three were also clearly observed at the LDK Assembly meeting, before which Abdixhiku had offered his resignation, but the same, by a majority vote, was not accepted by the party members.
There, after Abdixhiku's speech, the vast majority of the party members stood up and applauded Abdixhiku, but not Hoti, Bajrami, and Arben Gashi.
Unlike the former, the latter, Gashi, has not been included in Abdixhiku's list of the new LDK leadership. It seems that unlike Hoti and Bajrami, Abdixhiku still has bad relations with Gashi.
