Vetëvendosje MP Nezir Kraki has said that it is meaningless for LVV to be accused of blocking the formation of institutions.

He responded to accusations from other parties that VV is trying to make the secret ballot functional to get the votes of the Serbian List. As Kraki said, the Serbian List is ahead of the Albanian MPs, who according to him would mostly vote for the Vetëvendosje candidate if they had the opportunity to vote secretly.

"Secret voting, secrecy when the will of the individual is expressed, is the pinnacle of democracy. We all vote secretly in elections and this idea that we should only vote openly... look, the rules are clear in the Assembly, secret voting has not been considered unconstitutional... The assumptions or hallucinations of some that maybe we are seeking votes from the Serbian List, no, because before we hope for the Serbian List's vote, there are about 50 Albanian deputies, I am convinced that many of them would align with the state at the moment that secret voting allows them to stand out from the crowd," he said.
