The Assembly of Kosovo Presidency is meeting today in its first session following the recent ruling by the Constitutional Court of Kosovo concerning the presidential election process.
The Court determined that the decree issued by Vjosa Osmani to dissolve the Assembly did not produce legal effect. Instead, lawmakers have been granted an additional 34 days to elect a new head of state.
During the meeting, the Presidency is expected to review several key agenda items, including international agreements and the formation of ad hoc committees tasked with selecting candidates for the Independent Media Commission and the Board of Radio Television of Kosovo.
According to the Constitutional Court’s decision, failure to elect a president within the given timeframe will result in the dissolution of the Assembly and the calling of early elections, which must be held within 45 days.
The development places renewed pressure on political actors to reach consensus and avoid a new electoral cycle.
