Assembly Presidency schedules first plenary sitting after Constitutional Court deadline
Published · Updated
What happened
The new Assembly Presidency met on September 25 and initiated the scheduling of the first plenary session of the new legislature, with all parliamentary parties participating. The meeting took place after the Constitutional Court set a binding timetable that requires the Assembly to elect its president by 2026-10-06.
Why it matters
The Presidency meeting converts the court ruling into an active parliamentary sequence with a near-term deadline. The next plenary steps will show whether parties are moving toward constituting the Assembly or toward a failure that opens the way to fresh elections by mid-November.
On September 25, Kosovo's new Assembly Presidency convened with all parliamentary parties present and moved to schedule the first plenary sitting of the 11th legislature. PDK attended despite not yet holding its own deputy speaker seat in the Presidency. The move follows the Constitutional Court's September 23 ruling that compressed the parliamentary timetable, leaving parties until 2026-10-06 to elect an Assembly president or face a path toward new elections by 2026-11-15.
