Bedri Hamza was elected as the new leader of the Democratic Party of Kosovo (formerly led by Hashim Thaçi). Hamza was elected without a single vote against, in a convention where he was the sole candidate following the resignation of Memli Krasniqi. His election was met with opposition from figures within the party, including Enver Hoxhaj, who called for the postponement of the convention and more room for internal competition. However, the PDK decided to continue the process, keeping Hamza as the sole candidate, as he met the statutory requirements.
Hamza, who has experience as a finance minister and mayor, aims to restore PDK as the main force in the country, especially in the face of Albin Kurti. Kosovo is expected to go to parliamentary elections soon, and Hamza is seen as the man who must revitalize PDK's structures to increase its political influence.
