The Presidency of the European Union welcomes the orderly conduct of the municipal elections of 15 November 2009 in Kosovo. The broad participation from different ethnic groups is an expression of voters’ commitment to the further consolidation of a democratic and multi-ethnic society in Kosovo in accordance with European values and standards. The Presidency expresses its hope that the second round of elections on 13 December will be conducted in orderly manner.

The Presidency wishes to point out the great significance of correct and full completion of the remaining election process. In this process, the Election Complaints and Appeal Commission plays a key role and must be allocated all the necessary support and resources.
