TIRANA – Kosovo’s parliament will vote on Wednesday morning on whether to endorse a new government led by Avdullah Hoti, the deputy head of the Democratic League of Kosovo, LDK, only four months after the same chamber voted in a government led by Albin Kurti.
On Tuesday, Arben Gashi, the head of the parliamentary group of the LDK, which was Kurti’s governing coalition partner but initiated the no-confidence motion that toppled his government in late March, claimed that “we have 64 votes”. There are 120 lawmakers in the Kosovo Assembly so this represents a majority.
The votes would include 28 MPs from the LDK, four from the Social Democratic Initiative, NISMA and 13 from the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo, AAK.
The LDK is also counting on votes from lawmakers representing minority communities in Kosovo. /argumentum.al
