DescriptionPRISTINA (Reuters) - Kosovo’s highest court ruled on Monday that a June parliamentary vote electing the new government was illegal, pushing the country into an early election.

The Constitutional Court of Kosovo said the election of the government of Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti was not “in accordance with paragraph 3 of article 95.”

The court called on the country’s president to set the date for a new election.

The government led by the centre-right Democratic League of Kosovo was elected by 61 deputies in the Balkan country’s 120-seat parliament after weeks of legal wrangling following dismissal of the previous government.
