When politics reaches a deadlock, do the ways to find solutions also become increasingly radical?

Let us take you to the Kosovo parliament, where actions spoke louder than words.

A woman suddenly takes out something and throws it toward the front one after another.

It is none other than eggs.

This incident took place in the Kosovo parliament.

Amid a prolonged political stalemate surrounding the formation of a new government, an opposition lawmaker threw eggs to protest against Acting Prime Minister Kurti.

Other lawmakers and security personnel rushed in to stop the situation, and the meeting was eventually suspended.

Acting Prime Minister Kurti was in the middle of remarks implying that more time was needed for negotiations with other parties.

Perhaps protesting with words alone was just too frustrating.

It seems politicians these days need to be equipped with practical skills like egg-throwing, not just policies.
