Kosovo Parliament Confirms New Government, Ending Year-Long Deadlock
The approval came as 66 of the 120 parliamentary members supported the new cabinet, while 49 opposed it and five abstained from voting.
At the parliamentary podium, Kurti, leader of the Vetevendosje (Self-Determination) party and the designated prime minister, remarked that the 45-year prison sentences sought by prosecutors for former Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) commanders on trial in The Hague “misrepresent the truth.”
During his address, he outlined plans for the government’s four-year term, including a €1 billion ($1.18 billion) investment in defense, substantial spending on renewable energy and water resources, and the development of Kosovo’s manufacturing sector.
Kurti also highlighted initiatives to boost women’s participation in the workforce and to raise the minimum wage in alignment with economic growth.
Regarding Serbia, he stressed that bilateral relations would be improved through a “constructive and creative dialogue.”
