Kosovo's election authority has made a significant decision by barring the main ethnic Serb party, Srpska Lista, from competing in the upcoming parliamentary election. The Central Election Commission justified this move by citing the party's nationalist stance and close ties to Serbia.
The commission highlighted that Srpska Lista leader Zlatan Elek has consistently referred to Kosovo as 'Kosovo i Metohija,' indicating Serbia's autonomous province of Kosovo, in line with Belgrade's terminology. Additionally, the party's strong connections with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and other Serbian leaders who do not recognize Kosovo's independence were also mentioned as reasons for the disqualification.
