The Constitutional Court of Kosovo has confirmed to KosovaPress that it received a request submitted electronically by representatives of the Serb List on Saturday, August 30. However, the Court did not clarify whether the request is considered legally valid.

Court spokesperson Veton Dula confirmed the submission date but refrained from giving further details, including how the Serb List referred to the institution in its filing. The party has recently refused to recognize the Assembly of Kosovo, instead calling it the “Assembly of Pristina” in public statements.

On Saturday, the Serb List announced via Facebook that its deputies had filed a complaint with the Constitutional Court, challenging the separate voting procedure for the election of minority community deputy speakers during the constitutive session of the Assembly.

The party said the move was necessary due to what it described as a “serious violation of the rights of the Serbian people in the sessions of the Assembly in Pristina.” It called on the Court to “react immediately and take all necessary measures to protect the rule of law and the rights of the Serbian people in accordance with applicable legal acts.”

The complaint comes after the newly elected Speaker of Parliament, Dimal Basha, held separate votes for deputy speakers from minority communities and later resorted to drawing lots to determine the candidate for the Serb community’s deputy speaker position.

The Serb List, which enjoys official backing from Belgrade, has long opposed many of Kosovo’s parliamentary decisions, framing them as violations of the rights of the Serbian community.
