Kosovo: President fails political compromise for new Cabinet
Consultative meeting not attended by opposition parties
24 July, 16:23
(ANSA) - PRISTINA - Kosovo's president Hashim Thaci has
failed to secure a compromise among political parties to create
a new government. His ethnic Albanian bloc of former
independence war leaders holds 39 seats in the 120-seat
parliament, the largest single group following a June 11 popular
vote. To form a cabinet, it must muster a coalition with other
political parties.
Thaci's consultative meeting on Monday was not attended by the other main players: the nationalist Movement for Self-determination, as well as a coalition led by former Prime Minister Isa Mustafa and the main ethnic Serb minority party.
All boycotted the meeting, saying the president was favoring his former comrades-at-arms.
Thaci decreed that parliament was to convene on August 3.
