According to the LDK lawmaker, supporting this candidacy represents a decision in the state’s interest, while she said she wanted to remain optimistic about all of the party’s lawmakers voting in favor.
“We now have a meeting of the Parliamentary Group, and I am very hopeful. This is a decision in the state’s interest, while Bekim Sejdiu’s candidacy does honor to Kosovo,” Osmani said, underscoring that the candidate was proposed by the LDK.
Asked about lawmaker Avdullah Hoti’s position, Osmani said Sejdiu’s candidacy is in line with the decisions of the LDK’s structures.
“I believe you can speak with him. I cannot speak on his behalf, but I repeat: the candidacy of Prof. Dr. Bekim Sejdiu does honor to all of Kosovo. It not only meets all the criteria unanimously established at the last meeting of the Parliamentary Group, but also respects the latest decision of the LDK Assembly, which called on the chairman to do everything possible to ensure that Kosovo has functioning institutions. At the same time, this candidacy gives the country the opportunity to continue important work in defense of democracy and the Constitution, and to strengthen alliances,” she said.
Osmani stressed that Sejdiu should receive the votes of all lawmakers.
“As the LDK, we have made a compromise by always placing Kosovo’s interests above any individual or party interest. Now, every lawmaker in the Assembly of Kosovo—not only those from the LDK—has a historic responsibility to ensure that the country has stable institutions,” she said.
