Albin Kurti’

KOSOVO Prime Minister Albin Kurti’s left-wing party has been forced to look for an ally to form the next government, after it was left without a majority in the weekend parliamentary election — despite it winning most seats. 

With most votes counted, Mr Kurti’s Self-Determination Movement Party (Vetevendosje!) had won 41.3 per cent, according to the Central Election Commission.

The Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK), whose main leaders are detained at a Netherlands-based international criminal tribunal in The Hague and accused of war crimes, won 21.8 per cent of the vote.
