The LDK, which Rugova heads, was obliged to seek a coalition agreement because it did not win enough votes in the 23 October parliamentary election to form a government on its own.
DSK, na čijem se čelu nalazi Rugova, bio je primoran da formira koaliciju zato što na parlamentarnim izborima 23. oktobra nije osvojio dovoljan broj glasova da bi mogao samostalno da sastavi vladu.
