Kosovo heads for snap election after months of political deadlock

Source: Politico

“Kosovo is heading toward a snap election after political parties failed to agree on a governing majority Wednesday, leading to the dissolution of parliament.

President Vjosa Osmani announced that the election will take place on Dec. 28, bringing Kosovo back to the polls for the seventh time since its independence from Serbia in 2008. More than nine months have passed since Kosovo held its latest parliamentary election, in which Prime Minister Albin Kurti’s ruling Self-Determination party (VV) won the most votes but fell short of securing the 61-seat majority needed to form a government. Parties have been engaged in talks but failed to meet the Nov. 19 constitutional deadline to form a government.” (11/20/25)
