Before the meeting, Kurti expressed optimism about the possibility of cooperation with the LDK.

“We will meet with the LDK and see how we can move forward together. Naturally, with mutual trust and in a positive atmosphere,” Kurti said.

The PDK, LDK and the Alliance, the three opposition parties, did not attend the meeting.

Kurti arrived for the meeting with the LDK at 16:16 and told the media on his way in that he was approaching the meeting with a positive attitude.

The meeting between Kurti and Abdixhiku had been announced amid the latest political developments and efforts to find a solution to the current situation in Kosovo.

Acting President Albulena Haxhiu had invited the parliamentary parties to a meeting on Tuesday. However, the former opposition parties—the PDK, LDK and the Alliance—boycotted it.
