The Democratic Party of Kosovo, in a statement following the swearing-in of its deputies and the failure of Albulena Haxhiu to be elected speaker of parliament, has once again said that it is ready to take responsibility for forming a new government, even though it came second in the February 9 elections.
"The Democratic Party of Kosovo will continue to be a factor of stability, a guarantor of constitutional order and a strong voice of civic interest. Committed to democracy, state-building and development, PDK remains ready to take responsibility for the formation of a new professional government, with Prime Minister Bedri Hamza, and with clear objectives to return the state to the right track of development and integration - in the event that the first mandate fails to secure a parliamentary majority, as was clearly demonstrated today," reads a statement published on Facebook by PDK leader Memli Krasniqi.
This party has announced that it recognizes the right of the first party to propose a candidate for Speaker of the Assembly. However, PDK has said that the primary responsibility for establishing institutions belongs to Vetëvendosje, but according to it, the responsibility does not permanently lie with VV.
"The hour for the establishment of the new institutions of the Republic has begun. The first, but not permanent, responsibility falls on the VV-Guxo-Alternativa coalition, which must treat this moment with the seriousness required by the political situation and the country's need for stability," the PDK statement said.
Regarding the vote on the Verification Commission's report on quorum and mandates, after two failures, PDK said that with the vote in favor it contributed "to overcoming an unnecessary parliamentary deadlock."
According to this party, the commission has accepted the request to include in the minutes the individual resignations of the prime minister and ministers.
