Kosovo’s President Vjosa Osmani met on Monday with the leader of the Social Democratic Initiative (Nisma), Fatmir Limaj, as part of her ongoing political consultations aimed at resolving the deadlock in the Assembly of Kosovo, which remains unconstituted three months after the elections.

In a brief statement on Facebook, the Presidency said the meeting followed a request from Nisma for a consultation.

No further details were provided about the meeting, and Limaj has not yet commented on the discussion.

Nisma secured three seats in the Assembly during the February 9 elections, running in a coalition with the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK).

The meeting between Osmani and Limaj came just hours after lawmakers failed for the 18th time to constitute the Assembly.

On Monday, MPs once again refused—this time for the tenth consecutive session—to form a commission that would oversee a secret ballot to elect the new Speaker of Parliament.

The issue of the secret vote—first proposed on May 1 by session chair Avni Dehari after Vetëvendosje’s nominee Albulena Haxhiu failed several times to secure the 61 votes required for election—has now been sent to the Constitutional Court of Kosovo by opposition parties from the previous legislature.

These parties argue that Vetëvendosje’s attempt to elect the Speaker via secret ballot is unconstitutional and have asked the Court to impose a “temporary measure suspending parliamentary sessions until this matter is reviewed and a decision is made.”

Haxhiu is considered a “divisive figure” by the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) and AAK, while the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) has stated it will not support any Vetëvendosje candidate for Speaker.

Vetëvendosje insists that Haxhiu deserves to be elected and, while expressing willingness to reach a political agreement, has ruled out nominating anyone else for the position.
