In addition to the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK), which has not yet taken a position on voting for international agreements, the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) and the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK) have stated that they will support them, stressing that they do not intend to block such processes.
Regarding the constitution of the Assembly and the formation of the government, uncertainties were addressed by the leader of the Vetëvendosje Movement, Albin Kurti. However, doubts remain over whether the tenth legislature will vote in favor of the 2026 budget and international agreements.
“Neither the election of the president nor the ratification of international agreements can pass without the votes of opposition MPs.”
“Therefore, I do not know what positions the opposition parties will take in the weeks and months ahead. It is clear that neither international agreements nor the re-election or election of the president can pass without the support of opposition deputies. Meanwhile, the blockades regarding the constitution of the Assembly and the formation of the government were removed by the people on December 28,” said Albin Kurti, leader of the Vetëvendosje Movement.
The Democratic Party of Kosovo, which placed second in the December 28 elections, has not yet taken a stance on these issues, stating that it is waiting for the Assembly to be formally constituted.
Meanwhile, the Democratic League of Kosovo says it has voted and will continue to vote for agreements that are in Kosovo’s interest.
“LDK is a state-building party, and we have never viewed international agreements as a tool for daily political battles. We understand that these agreements are vital for economic development and capital projects that directly affect citizens’ lives, as well as for maintaining relations with our strategic partners, since failure to ratify them damages Kosovo’s credibility on the international stage. Regarding Mr. Kurti’s statement, it must be clear that the primary responsibility for securing votes and ensuring the proper functioning of the Assembly lies with the parliamentary majority.”
“LDK has voted and will continue to vote for agreements that are in the interest of the Republic of Kosovo. If the next government lacks the votes, this is a consequence of its inability to manage its own numbers within the parliamentary group and its failure to cooperate with the opposition. We remain committed to our constructive role, not blocking processes that serve the state, while demanding accountability for any failure by any government in managing legislative processes,” said Anton Çuni of the LDK, as reported by Dukagjini.
The Alliance for the Future of Kosovo has also been clear on this issue, stating that it has never been an obstacle to agreements that are in the country’s interest.
Last year, after repeated failures to constitute the Assembly, Kosovo President Vjosa Osmani convened a session on November 11 with several agenda items, including the formation of parliamentary committees, the first reading of the draft law on budget allocations, and the ratification of several international agreements.
However, that session was boycotted by the PDK, LDK, and AAK, which described it as unconstitutional.
