Signs of this annoyance, although preliminary, have been shown here and there, albeit timidly. But if the hand of the Democrats in government becomes heavier, it is very likely that the effect will be stronger.
By Thursday, when the new ministers are announced, the noise over the hypothesis of the Democrats in the "Rama 4" cabinet is expected to increase.
Expected as a voyeurism more showbiz than political. However, beyond the curiosity, which will likely be followed by a partisan outcry over enemies and traitors, the political effect is there.
An effect that does not start on September 11 if it happens. After all, Edi Rama's team has long had democrats taken from Sali Berisha's political community of 2009-2013. Beyond the controversies, that "team of democrats" has been taken from the strongmen of 2013, which has been extended in time year after year, and especially in the respective parliamentary and local elections. For example, Ylli Shehu, former DP MP in the 2013 elections, joined the LSI 2 years later.
In the 2017 elections, he ran on the LSI reserve lists and after his mandates expired in 2019, he re-entered Parliament. In 2021 and 2025, he joined the Socialist Party, mainly in the Kamza and Paskuqan areas, representing the Kukës community.
Meanwhile, another DP MP, Halit Valteri, after being on the DP reserve lists in the 2019 Parliament, where like his friend Shehu he is accused of being a traitor, switched to the SP and is today a member of the Tirana municipal council. In the 2021 and 2025 elections, he ran for MP in the Tirana district.
Meanwhile, the democratic infusion into the socialist government is greater than that, and this can be seen in Shkodra, where, in addition to the vote to elect Benet Beci from a significant part of the right-wing electorate, many of his staff are also part of the democratic community.
Among the SP deputies from Shkodra, Onid Bejleri and Xhenis Çela come from a historically opposition family background, but have been attached to the SP for several years.
These indicators are nothing more than data of a clear and continuous flow from the DP to the SP without any political complexes or problems. A flow that has brought about that exodus of opposition votes since the 2023 elections until today.
They don't want to admit it, because they label it with Bolshevik terms of betrayal and betrayal, but politically this is an inescapable fact. Which means it is the political effect of the arrival of the Democrats in the Socialist Party.
But the same cannot be said if Edi Rama includes the Democrats in his fourth-term government. Whatever the motivation or reason for this political action by the prime minister, it is likely to create major problems within the Socialist Party. Especially among these political figures who may feel hurt that they were not called to govern, even though they have had a considerable electoral contribution.
Signs of this annoyance, although preliminary, have been shown here and there, albeit timidly. But if the hand of the Democrats in government becomes heavier, it is very likely that the effect will be stronger.
