The Democratic Party has withdrawn from the process for electing the People's Advocate.
The leader of the DP, Sali Berisha, considered the process a farce, as according to him, the SP also introduced other candidates, such as Endri Shabani.
"The drug lords have played a shameful game. We have been convinced by their intrigues and banalities. The opposition has withdrawn all signatures, for other candidacies than the candidacies it has chosen itself, which are Besim Ndregjoni, Adriana Kalaja, Jola Hysaj, Aranita Brahaja, Haluci, Dardan Mustafaj. These are our candidacies. Today they submitted their candidacies. Ulizua said that we do not recognize the withdrawal of signatures. So we are completely withdrawing from the process. We are no longer a party to the process of electing the People's Advocate. We are not participating in a farce. If we leave the PD alone, we showed ourselves to be reasonable. We presented several candidacies, they also added their candidacies. It is Endri Shabani. The PD withdraws from the process, we do not participate in the process. This is a shame for them," said Berisha.
The statement comes after on Tuesday, the list of candidate names for the position was approved in the Laws Committee with 9 votes in favor and 3 against, thus moving on to the plenary session for a vote.
Before the start of work in the committee, the SP parliamentary group met and decided not to propose any new names, but to choose one of the names proposed by the opposition.
The candidates for this position are: Aranita Brahaj, Jola Hysaj, Besim Ndregjoni, Adriana Kalaja, Tartar Bazaj, Skënder Haluca and Endrit Shabani.
