The prime minister-designate will then have 15 days to form a government that has the backing of a majority of deputies."Bytyci Fatos Kosovo takes first step to resolve constitutional crisis, form government http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-kosovo-government-idUKKBN0F11V120140626 https://web.archive.org/web/20160419211058/http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-kosovo-government-idUKKBN0F11V120140626 dead April 19, 2016 8 April 2016 Reuters UK Reuters 26 June 2014 en-GB Incumbent Prime Minister Hashim Thaci and the PDK were expected to be the first to form government, having won a plurality of the seats in the election. However, an opposition coalition of the LDK, AAK, and NISMA sought to form a governing coalition, arguing that together they could form a majority of the seats in parliament.
When parliament resumed in July, the opposition coalition attempted to elect LDK leader Isa Mustafa as Speaker of Parliament, but only after a member of Thaci's party had walked out of the vote.Robinson Matt Kosovo lawmakers struggle for control of parliament http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-kosovo-government-idUKKBN0FM0YB20140717 https://web.archive.org/web/20170820034303/http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-kosovo-government-idUKKBN0FM0YB20140717 dead August 20, 2017 8 April 2016 Reuters UK Reuters 17 July 2014 en-GB
This constitutional crisis dragged on for several months, until the PDK formed a governing coalition with the LDK. Under the agreement, LDK leader Isa Mustafa would become Prime Minister, while Thaci would be Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Parliamentary struggles continued for Kosovo after the government was formed. Vetëvendosje, an opposition party staunchly opposed to the 2013 Brussels Agreement between Kosovo and Serbia, vowed that "no session will be held until the government renounces a deal with Serbia that gives greater rights to Serbs living in northern Kosovo."Watch: dramatic scenes as MP sets off smoke bomb in Kosovo parliament http://www.euronews.com/2015/12/14/opposition-rebel-mp-fires-smoke-bomb-in-kosovo-parliament/ 8 April 2016 euronews euronews 15 December 2014 Opposition members of parliament set off nine smoke bombs in the parliamentary chambers over a period of six months.Kosovo: opposition MPs fire tear gas in ninth parliament attack in six months http://www.euronews.com/2016/03/10/kosovo-opposition-mps-fire-tear-gas-in-ninth-parliament-attack-in-six-months/ 8 April 2016 euronews euronews 10 March 2016
