  "summary": "An incident occurred in Kosovo's parliament when opposition MP Time Kadrijaj threw eggs at acting Prime Minister Albin Kurti. According to the Times of India, Kadrijaj, an MP from the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK), approached Kurti and hurled several eggs in his direction, shouting \"Shame on you!\"\n\nThe parliamentary session was suspended after the confrontation, with the chairperson ordering the live broadcast to be cut as security personnel surrounded Kurti. The incident happened as Kurti’s Vetevendosje party was in negotiations with opposition groups over the formation of new institutions following the June 7 parliamentary election.\n\nKurti appeared unfazed by the attack, saying that if having eggs thrown at him was the price of continuing political dialogue, \"I am happy to pay this price.\" The BBC World and BBC News reported that lawmakers and police officers intervened after Kadrijaj hurled at least four eggs towards Kurti.",
