Kosovo is gearing up for a crucial parliamentary election on Sunday, with Prime Minister Albin Kurti facing a significant test after his party's landslide victory four years ago. The election will see eligible voters, including those from the diaspora, casting their ballots to elect 120 lawmakers from 26 political groups and one independent candidate. Notably, the Serb minority has 10 secured seats, with an additional 10 reserved for other minorities.
This election marks the first time since Kosovo's independence in 2008 that the parliament has completed a full four-year mandate. It is the ninth parliamentary vote in Kosovo since the end of the 1998-1999 war between Serbian government forces and ethnic Albanian separatists, which led to Kosovo's independence in 2008.
