The parliamentary climate is not suitable for reforms, Oerd Bylykbashi stated in an interview with A2CNN, where he explained the reasons why the opposition no longer participates in the meetings of the Special Commission for Electoral Reform.
According to him, the manner in which the Ombudsman was elected showed that the majority does not respect any of the opposition's demands.
" These two reforms cannot be islands of normality. These two reforms have as a prerequisite the political will to do things well and not to throw one at the other. They are things that leave a mark in a long time and leave either for better or for worse ," said Oerd Bylykbashi, vice president of the Democratic Party.
Despite leaving the table, Democrats have their demands ready if the political climate changes and work on Electoral Reform resumes.
" Of course, there is a need for very strong changes, even of a criminal nature, in terms of the fragmentation of the state in elections and the criminalization of partisanship, perhaps for a freeze for a period of time, so that the administration does not participate in political processes in any form, during and after working hours ," he added.
The co-chair of the Electoral Reform Commission seems to have lost faith even in the internationals who can restrain Edi Rama from carrying out unilateral reforms.
" They cannot produce any kind of guarantee, but they cannot stop Edi Rama from breaking the consensus. They could not stop him in 2020, they could not stop him in 2016 ," said Bylykbashi.
The Special Committee on Electoral Reform has met only once with the opposition present during this parliamentary session. The political parties also had the approval of the law on party financing on their agenda, but the departure of the Democrats from the table has stalled the work.
