Democratic Party of Kosovo

The member of the Presidency of the Democratic Party of Kosovo, Besa Kabashi-Ramaj, has said that Serbia has superiority in the United Nations where the session of the UN Security Council is being held, called by the Serbian president, Aleksandar Vucic.
Kabashi-Ramaj said that Serbia has superiority in the UN since it is a member and Kosovo is not yet.

This happened after the decision of Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti not to travel to Tirana for the preparatory meeting of the Berlin Process at the invitation of his Albanian colleague Edi Rama.

MPs from the opposition Democratic Party of Kosovo, PDK, physically attacked Prime Minister Albin Kurti and government ministers during Kurti's speech in parliament on Thursday, as a physical fight erupted between the two groups.

Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti was attacked by opposition MPs while speaking at a plenary session of the Kosovo Parliament.

An MP from the opposition Democratic Party of Kosovo (DPK) attempted to douse Kurti with water and MPs from the prime minister's ruling party, Self-Determination, jumped to his defense.

President of the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK), Memli Krasniqi, said that the elections were the result of escalation in the north, which resulted in the deterioration of relations with the international community.
Krasniqi also said that he should not have insisted on sending the mayors to municipal facilities, reports Siri.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic told media on Thursday that he had "begged" locals in the north of Kosovo, protesting for the fourth day in a row in front of municipal buildings in the Serb-dominated area, "in their determination to persevere in the fight for law and justice, to do so always, above all, in relation to KFOR, in a peaceful way".

Kosovo Serbs gathered in front of municipal buildings in Serb-dominated northern Kosovo early on Monday, protesting against newly elected ethnic Albanian mayors, while Kosovo Police and NATO's peacekeeping mission in Kosovo, KFOR, upped their presence to secure the area.

The European Union on Monday criticised the elections held on Sunday in mainly Serbian north Kosovo, saying the very low turnout meant they offered no "long-term solution" to the crisis in the north.

Kosovo authorities have been installing containers in four Serb-dominated northern municipalities to be used as polling stations on Sunday, when voters are called to cast ballots in disupted local elections that most locals are likely to boycott.

Media unions and opposition parties have accused Kosovo's ruling party, Vetevendosje, of the capture of the public broadcaster, RTK, after the board announced that Rilind Gervalla was appointed Director of Television on Tuesday.
