New generation faces old guard in Kosovo election
Al Jazeera
As Kosovars head to the polls, a new generation of politicians is seeking to tap into widespread disillusionment.
Kosovars are going to the polls in an early election that could see a new generation of politicians take the lead after tapping into widespread frustration and fatigue with the political establishment. Sunday’s general election comes after a year in which the coronavirus pandemic has deepened social and economic crises in the former Serbian province, which declared independence 13 years ago. Already one of Europe’s poorest economies, Kosovo is now struggling through a pandemic-triggered downturn, with vaccinations yet to start for the population of 1.8 million.More Related News
