Election of the new president, LVV invites PDK and LDK to present three candidacies

Prime Minister Albin Kurti's ruling party, the Vetevendosje Movement (LVV), announced early Saturday that it has asked the two largest opposition parties in the country, the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) and the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK), to jointly present three candidates for the next president of Kosovo, in order to avoid early elections.
The ruling party's call on Saturday - which it says is valid until Sunday evening - comes as a constitutional deadline for electing a president expires on Tuesday.
LVV stated on Facebook that it would withdraw its current candidates – Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Glauk Konjufca and MP Fatmire Mulhaxha-Kollçaku – from the presidential race if the two opposition parties bring forward the three requested names.
She wrote that this decision was made during a meeting of the party's Presidency on Friday night.
"We invite PDK and LDK to jointly propose three names from which the new President of the 10th legislature could be elected," she wrote.
She said that all three candidates must be "unifying figures, with high civic and national integrity, with proven contribution to professional and social life, and outside the current political scene."
"A solution must be found, because it is possible. We must try and engage together, because it is our duty that stems from the responsibility that the citizens of the Republic of Kosovo have entrusted to us," wrote the LVV.
