Prime Minister Albin Kurti stated that political parties are trying to reach an agreement on the election of the country’s next president in order to avoid the possibility of new elections.
Kurti spoke to the media after a two-hour meeting with Lumir Abdixhiku, the head of the Democratic League of Kosovo.
According to Kurti, his party has not yet proposed a candidate for president, highlighting that the process requires a broad political consensus in parliament.
“We need a majority that approaches around 85 votes. It is not a simple situation,” Kurti said. He added that most political parties believe that, after four rounds of elections, the first half of 2026 should not be dominated again by new elections.
The prime minister emphasized that the government and political actors will make every effort to reach an agreement. “We will do our maximum to avoid new elections,” Kurti said after the meeting.
