Manaj recalled that he had made his position on the candidacy public a day earlier, describing Sejdiu as the right person for the post of president.
According to him, the proposal for a consensus candidate was discussed after a meeting of the parliamentary group held last week. He expressed his belief that both the Central Presidency and the other bodies of the LDK would come out in favor of Bekim Sejdiu’s candidacy.
Asked whether measures could be taken against MPs who do not support the candidacy or who are absent from the vote, Manaj said he did not expect such a situation. He expressed certainty that all LDK MPs would attend the session to elect the president of Kosovo.
Manaj also dismissed reports that six LDK MPs had formed a separate parliamentary group. He said that the parliamentary group remained united and that all MPs were carrying out their duties.
He added that following the meeting of the Central Presidency, a meeting of the parliamentary group would also be held, where the MPs are expected to act in line with the positions and decision of the LDK Central Presidency.
Regarding MP Avdullah Hoti’s statement that he would not vote for the candidacy, Manaj said he believed that Hoti would also take part in the process and support the election of the president, including Bekim Sejdiu’s candidacy.
