Eggs Explode: Kosovo Parliament Becomes Wild After MP's Unexpected Attack
In a dramatic turn of events on Saturday, opposition Member of Parliament Time Kadrijaj threw a number of eggs at Kosovo’s acting Prime Minister Albin Kurti during a parliamentary session. The eggs, at least four in total, flew across the chamber before lawmakers and security officers rushed in to stop the incident.
Kurti, who had just announced that he required more time to discuss potential coalitions with other parties before appointing a new speaker after the June snap election, became the target of the sudden aggression. The disruption prompted a frantic scramble among officials, with police as well as fellow MPs intervening to quell the chaos.
The eggs landed in various directions, some apparently striking the floor and a few hitting the side of Parliament House. The clip, now circulating across social media, shows the moment captured in slow motion, underscoring the physicality of the protest and the stark reality of Kosovo’s unfolding political tensions.
While details of the attack remain limited, the incident has intensified calls for greater security measures within the parliamentary building and heightened scrutiny of the political climate. Analysts warn that such episodes could further polarise an already fragmented political landscape, especially in light of the recent election cycle.
