Kosovo political analysts warn of potential early elections

Political analyst Visar Xani has suggested that Kosovo could face new elections if opposition parties, specifically the PDK and LDK, fail to unify and establish strong leadership. Xani noted that the current government, led by Prime Minister Albin Kurti, maintains a narrow majority that relies heavily on support from minority representatives. He warned that Kurti might use political calculations to trigger a new electoral process to increase his parliamentary numbers if the opposition remains fragmented.

Within the LDK, internal leadership ambitions are surfacing ahead of the 2027 elections. Deputy Arben Gashi confirmed his intention to run for the party chairmanship, stating he believes he meets the necessary requirements through his political experience and profile. Other figures expressing interest in the LDK leadership include Prishtina Mayor Perparim Rama and deputy Hykmete Bajrami.
