Parliament will have to meet again today due to the fact that during last night\u2019s first round of voting, the quorum wasn\u2019t reached.<\/p>\n<p>The parliament\u2019s chairman, Glauk Konjufca has confirmed that the session will continue on Sunday at 17:00 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the absence of the necessary quorum for the validation of the repeated voting process of the first round of the president\u2019s election, the session will continue on to April 4<sup>th<\/sup> 2021, at 17:00 p.m.\u201d said Konjufca.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday\u2019s session, the first voting round was repeated twice, as the quorum of 80 votes wasn\u2019t reached.<\/p>\n<p>78 MPs were present during the first voting round and 79 during the second. There are three MPs of the Democratic Alliance of Kosovo (LDK), Avdullah Hoti, Agim Veliu and Driton Selmanaj that didn\u2019t participate in the first round of voting. It\u2019s worthy of noting that all three of them have adhered to the same party as Vjosa Osmani, before she left LDK and is running for president after the proposition of VV (Self-Determination movement).<\/p>\n<p>Even though they were present in the plenary session, MPs Enver Hoxhaj and Bedri Hamza left the hall, when it was time for the initiation of the first voting round.<\/p>\n<p>MPs from AAK didn\u2019t participate in this voting process, except for Albena Reshitja. She was the only one present in the parliament hall and she even voted for Osmani, thus taking a stance against her own party, led by Ramush Haradinaj.<\/p>\n<p>The Serbian list also boycotted the plenary session for electing Kosovo\u2019s new president.<\/p>\n<p>Nasuf Bejta is also another candidate that has openly declared his disagreement regarding Vjosa Osmani\u2019s election.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div class=\"vc_row_inner tdi_170_290 zmadhim-teksti vc_row vc_inner wpb_row td-pb-row\">\n<div class=\"vc_column_inner tdi_178_706 wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-inner-column td-pb-span9\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"td_block_wrap tdb_single_content tdi_180_2e4 td-pb-border-top td_block_template_1 td-post-content tagdiv-type\" data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_180_2e4\">\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<p><strong>YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2021\/04\/03\/albin-kurti-and-vjosa-osmani-back-down-from-general-elections-law\/\">Albin Kurti and Vjosa Osmani back down from General Elections Law<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2021\/04\/03\/electing-the-president-abdixhiku-albin-kurti-aims-to-create-political-instability\/\">Electing the president, Abdixhiku: Albin Kurti aims to create political instability<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2021\/04\/02\/pm-kurti-we-need-to-choose-the-president-or-else-were-heading-to-elections\/\">PM Kurti: We need to choose the president, or else we\u2019re heading to elections<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_row_inner tdi_182_609 vc_row vc_inner wpb_row td-pb-row\">\n<div class=\"vc_column_inner tdi_184_607 wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-inner-column td-pb-span12\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper td_block_wrap td_block_wrap tdb_single_current_post tdi_185_348 td-pb-border-top td_block_template_1\">\n<div class=\"td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Parliament of Kosovo will be meeting again today in order to recap last night\u2019s plenary session with the goal of electing the country\u2019s new president.
