Former President of Kosovo and elected deputy, Vjosa Osmani, issued a statement following the oath-taking ceremony in the Parliament. Osmani emphasized that participation in the legislative institution signifies a return to the foundational source of political authority and the corresponding duty to the citizenry. In her statement, Osmani characterized the Parliament as the “temple of democracy,” asserting that it is the primary location from which the mandate of elected representatives derives.
She wrote, “We are returning to where every mandate originates: to the temple of democracy and the citizens, and the responsibility to serve the Republic.”
Osmani further elaborated that the oath taken within the Parliament context represents an ongoing commitment to the welfare of Kosovo and its people. She stressed that this current affirmation builds upon prior pledges, stating, “Today’s oath is a continuation of the same pledge: to serve Kosovo and all our citizens with dignity, courage, and dedication.” The sentiment conveyed by Osmani underscores the belief that the legislative body remains central to democratic governance. Her remarks highlight the importance of accountability to the electorate as representatives resume their duties within the institutional framework.
The focus of her address remains on upholding the mandate received from the citizens and fulfilling the responsibilities associated with serving the Republic through its established democratic processes.
