Why It Matters
The country is experiencing an impasse in choosing the next president after the formation of the government. Internal divisions in the LDK complicate support for the proposed presidential candidate.
The Kosovo Parliament re-elected Albin Kurti as prime minister this Sunday (13), after his party came first in the June elections. Despite the formation of a new government, the country remains in the midst of a political crisis, and an impasse in choosing the next president could lead to a new early election.
At the end of August, Kurti reached an agreement with the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK), which has 18 deputies, to support law professor Bekim Sejdiu in the presidential election. A day later, however, six LDK parliamentarians said they would not follow the party leadership's decision.
