Imeri called for an agreement to establish the institutions to be reached as soon as possible, warning that their absence is causing legal uncertainty in relations between central and local government.
He said the political majority must end the blockade, establish the institutions and pay attention to the concrete problems of municipalities and citizens. According to Imeri, Kosovo and the region have no time to lose, while citizens have fulfilled their obligation by participating in elections and making their choice. For this reason, he called for good and responsible governance, rather than a continuation of the blockades.
Criticism of the situation was also voiced by Alberton Sahiti, head of the Alliance branch in Ferizaj. He pointed out that the Municipality of Ferizaj is among the municipalities facing consequences because of the lack of functioning and support from central institutions.
Sahiti called on Albin Kurti not to continue, as he put it, obstructing the functioning of local institutions.
According to him, the current government has blocked not only Kosovo’s institutions, but also the municipalities. Sahiti stressed that municipalities across the country are facing problems and challenges, while Ferizaj, he said, is one of the municipalities most affected by the lack of coordination, the failure to function properly and the lack of support from this government. He called on Kurti to reflect and not obstruct either government institutions or municipalities.
During the action, PDK MP Elmi Reçica criticized Vetëvendosje Movement leader Albin Kurti, accusing him of blocking the institutions and calling on him to return to the Assembly.
Reçica described the situation as worrying, particularly for citizens and children, who, he said, need functioning institutions.
The PDK MP called on Kurti, whom he also described as a “political vandal,” to stop the actions he considers acts of vandalism and return to the Assembly. Reçica said that if Kurti has 61 votes to elect the government, the PDK and the Alliance will give him their votes for the speaker and deputy speaker of the Assembly, so that the government can begin functioning.
He warned that Kosovo can no longer wait, accusing Kurti of managing situations to the detriment of the country by creating crises. Reçica said that a return to the Assembly is necessary, as delays could have consequences for Kosovo and for all those who are becoming an obstacle to its development.
The PDK has been organizing actions in front of the government building for more than two weeks. Through them, the party is opposing the continuation of Albin Kurti’s tenure as prime minister and calling for the institutions to become functional.
On different days, the actions have also been joined by Alliance MPs, as well as local PDK representatives from various municipalities across Kosovo.
