The Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) has reacted to the decision of the Constitutional Court of Kosovo, calling it a necessary clarification at a critical institutional moment for the country.
According to LDK leader Lumir Abdixhiku, the ruling provides guidance for further political actions and does not grant an advantage to any party.
“This decision returns the process to the Assembly of the Republic and gives MPs additional time to fulfill their duty to elect the President. At this stage, the primary responsibility rests with the parliamentary majority. They have had the time and opportunity to complete this process, and it is their duty to provide a solution. Without the votes of the majority, this process cannot be concluded,” Abdixhiku stated.
He emphasized that such issues cannot be resolved by imposition but through political agreements among representative forces.
“The President of the Republic should be a unifying figure, reflecting national unity, ensuring institutional balance, and not merely an extension of the parliamentary majority,” he added.
Abdixhiku stressed that the LDK remains ready to contribute to any serious effort to find a solution that ensures institutional stability and normal functioning, but it will not serve as an excuse for anyone’s failures.
He also commended the actions of President Vjosa Osmani, including her decree, noting that they aimed to preserve constitutional order and prevent an institutional vacuum.
“The Constitutional Court’s ruling, in addition to not identifying any constitutional violations, provides a definitive interpretation on this matter, which must be respected by all,” Abdixhiku said.
“The Republic has its rules. These require responsibility, maturity, and decision-making in accordance with the public interest. In the absence of a political agreement over the next 34 days, the Democratic League of Kosovo will enter any new electoral process united and prepared, with the confidence to offer new solutions for the country,” he concluded.
