A Kosovo Serb woman prepares ballot in the booth to vote in the parliamentary elections at a polling station in the town of Gracanica on February 9, 2025. Voters began casting ballots in Kosovo elections on February 9, 2025 in a contest that pits combative incumbent Prime Minister's quest to stamp out Serbian influence against a fractured opposition's vow to boost the economy.
