The constitution of the Assembly fails for the 50th time, the constitutional

The Kosovo Assembly members failed to constitute the Kosovo Assembly for the 50th time, despite rumors that an agreement to unblock the situation could be reached at the weekend. 104 members of parliament were present at the session.

Democratic Party of Kosovo MP Elmi Reçica has called on the chair of the session, Avni Dehari from the Vetëvendosje Movement, not to allow it to be "misused".

The Democratic League of Kosovo has also accused Dehari of "abusing" his position. Before the start of the session, lawyer Arianit Koci shaved his head in front of the Assembly, saying that this is a symbolic act, through which he is proving that "the end has come."

"This is no longer politics, therefore I demand that the Assembly be formed immediately today," said lawyer Koci, reiterating that this delay is endangering "Kosovo's citizenship."

The Assembly has not been constituted even after a meeting held on Saturday between the acting Prime Minister of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, who is also the leader of the Vetëvendosje Movement, and the leader of the Social Democratic Initiative, Fatmir Limaj. The details of the meeting have not been disclosed. Nisma MP, Xhevahire Izmaku, previously stated that her party wants Limaj to be nominated for the position of Speaker of the Assembly.

Deputies from the Democratic League of Kosovo and the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo reiterated on Monday that they do not have a vote for Limaj as Speaker of the Assembly. The situation is deadlocked after PDK, LDK, AAK and the Serbian List - the largest Serb party in Kosovo - refuse to propose a candidate for the formation of a secret ballot commission, arguing that the way the voting changes is unconstitutional.

The Vetëvendosje Movement demands that Albulena Haxhiu, the candidate for Speaker of Parliament, be voted on only once through a secret ballot and that if she does not secure the necessary 61 votes, she will withdraw from the race. Haxhiu has not secured the necessary votes in several consecutive sessions that have been held with open voting. For some parties, she is a divisive and unacceptable figure.

The parties continue to fail to reach a compromise despite the deadline set by the Constitutional Court for the constitution of the Assembly. Although the court has set July 26 as the deadline for the constitution, it has not provided further details on what will happen next if the parties do not reach an agreement by then. Kosovo President Vjosa Osmani has warned that she will address the Constitutional Court this week. Members of civil society have protested several times in front of the Assembly building, calling on the deputies to be held accountable.
