The costs of Kosovo's Political Polarisation on Foreign Policy

Kosovo's political polarisation is becoming a foreign policy liability. After months of electoral blockade, the country remains without a fully functioning government. Failed parliamentary sessions have been unable to break this political blockage, leaving institutions unable to move forward. While much of the public debate has focused on the domestic consequences of this impasse, foreign policy costs have received less attention, despite geopolitical uncertainties. This political polarisation is not simply undermining domestic governance, it also is a diplomatic liability, as Kosovo's strategic future relies on international partnerships, weakening Kosovo's credibility abroad.
