Kosovo Parliament Approves New Government Led by Prime Minister Albin Kurti
Just the facts
The 120-member assembly approved the administration with 62 votes in favor, positioning Kurti's Vetëvendosje party to lead the government after three legislative elections since February 2025 failed to establish a stable majority. The political deadlock had stalled legislative reforms required for European Union integration and access to pre-accession funding. Despite securing the vote to form a cabinet, the government faces an upcoming parliamentary vote to elect a new president, which requires a two-thirds majority to avoid a fourth snap election in two years.
Why this is news
Kosovo's 120-seat parliament voted to approve a new government led by Prime Minister Albin Kurti on September 13, 2026, ending three months of political deadlock.
