“Everything went as planned,” said Kurti after the elections. “We have won, and it is the confirmation of a good prosperous and democratic government.”
Previously province of Serbia, Kosovo declared independence in 2008 following a brutal civil war in the 1990s between the Serbs and the Albanians in the former Yugoslavia. Self -determination (VVL) was the first part to have served its four -year mandate to the government in the Pristina capital, after winning 50.3% of the votes in 2021.
Now, however, VVL will have to find a coalition partner if he hopes to continue in power – which could prove to be a challenge, given the pro -Albanian nationalism of Kurti and the need for a compromise to break the isolation Kosovo international.
Not to mention the Prime Minister’s salty language concerning the opposition, which he described as “monsters”.
“There has never been more war than against this government,” Kurti said after the elections. “With oligarchs that give money without accounting and with the opposition which concludes agreements even with the devil against our government. Even if they have lost again, they will remain an opposition, because they do not want the best for the state or the people. »»
Since 2021, Kurti has grown the community of ethnic Serbs in northern Kosovo, which represents up to 50,000 people from the population of 1.6 million people from Kosovo, to accept the authority of Pretina. This included the closure of Serbian banks and parallel governance institutions in the enclave and forcing Serbs to put Kosovar license plates on their vehicles.
