Albin Kurti

Albin Kurti is Kosovo's caretaker Prime Minister and leader of the Albanian nationalist Vetevendosje party. He has been in power since 2021, and his party's landslide victory in the recent parliamentary elections marks a significant development in Kosovo's politics. The election was called due to a year-long political deadlock, and Kurti's party won nearly half the vote, securing a majority for the third time. This outcome is expected to break the stalemate and enable Kurti to form a new government quickly. Recently, Kurti announced that Kosovo will accept migrants deported from the US who are not originally from Kosovo, in response to a request from Donald Trump's administration. This move has sparked interest globally, highlighting Kurti's efforts to address migration issues and his party's stance on national identity.
