Sunday midnight is the deadline for applying for new political entities to be certified to participate in the June 7 parliamentary elections.

So far, out of 53 registered political parties, 22 of them have notified the CEC that they will participate in the early elections, including the Social Democratic Party, the Democratic League of Kosovo, the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo and the Democratic Party of Kosovo.
So many 9 parties, including the Social Democratic Initiative of Fatmir Limajt, announced that they will not participate, while 3 coalitions have been created, including the Vetëvendosje Movement with its allies Guxo, Alternativa and the Albanian Democratic Christian Party.
The Vetëvendosje movement once again nominated Albin Kurti as its candidate for prime minister, LDK goes to the elections with Lumir Abdixik as the candidate for the head of the executive, while Vjosa Osmanin will lead the list of candidates for deputies and will be a candidate for President.
