The Kosovo Election Commission has barred the country's most important ethnic Serb political party from participating in the upcoming parliamentary elections.
The CEC stated that the main reason for refusing to approve the list was the nationalist position of the political force and its close ties with Serbia.
Election commission members said that party leader Zlatan Elek had never recognized Kosovo as an independent republic. Instead, he referred to Kosovo as an autonomous province of Serbia. The party also has close ties to Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and other Serbian representatives who also refuse to recognize the country's independence.
The party's expulsion could further deteriorate already tense relations between Kosovo and Serbia. Kosovo declared its independence in 2008.
Vucic criticized the exclusion. The party is the “only political opponent” of Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti, he wrote on Instagram.
