Kosovo is experiencing a significant shift in its security landscape as KFOR begins a gradual withdrawal from the Ibri Bridge and integrates the Kosovo Police into guarding the Deçan Monastery. This move signals increasing responsibility for domestic forces in maintaining security.
On the political front, the Assembly remains in a state of deadlock, with Prime Minister Albin Kurti attempting to secure more time for negotiations with opposition parties to break the impasse. Concurrently, Pristina Mayor Përparim Rama faces criticism for his attacks on the Kallxo.com news platform.
Public safety has become a prominent issue after two children died in e-scooter accidents by August, prompting police to seize seven scooters and issue fines in Pristina. Additionally, the 'DokuFest' film festival is underway, focusing on themes of family and migration, while citizens also face a slight increase in fuel prices.
