The new government holds the DP "hostage", Rama's scheme blocks

The fact is that the democratic leader has conditioned developments within the opposition on those on the other side.

Edi Rama is expected to announce the composition of the new Government on September 11, during the meeting of the Socialist Party's National Assembly. This is the main point of the meeting of the highest leadership forum of the Socialist Party and perhaps the most interesting part of the speech that the Prime Minister will deliver.

So far, Rama has preferred to hermetically protect the names that will be part of the Government in his 4th consecutive term as Prime Minister, while from time to time ideas circulate that the cabinet could also include technocrats from the opposition.

This idea has taken hold, or more precisely, has begun to be believed even among the opposition, to the point that it seems like a carefully constructed scheme that has put the largest opposition party, the one led by Sali Berisha, in a bind.

A few days ago, the democratic leader was asked when the DP parliamentary group would meet and who would lead it, while Berisha replied that the meeting would be announced very soon.

At a time when the Assembly is expected to hold the first session of the new legislature within the week, the DP could gather its deputies and appoint the leadership of the group. But in fact, it seems that Berisha is awaiting developments in the socialist camp.

Depending on the names that Rama will appoint to the Government, the SP Group and at the head of the Parliament, Berisha will make his move, even though this seems pointless.

No one would stop Berisha from gathering the Parliamentary Group, even as a process that would mark the beginning of an analysis of the May 11 defeat. But it seems that the democratic leader has conditioned the start of developments within his party on those on the other side.

And this has little to do with who will be part of the Government, but with who will lead the Parliament and who will take the lead of the SP Group. Berisha is clear that none of those who have a mandate as MPs from the ranks of the DP today will be called by Rama to become part of the Government.

Despite declaring for months that he will not recognize the results of May 11, accusing Edi Rama of buying votes and distorting the will of the voters, Berisha, as an 'old wolf' in politics, seems to maintain a communication relationship within the Parliament, regarding further developments, especially legal changes that may require over 84 votes.

Despite the fact that Edi Rama has 83 seats in the Assembly, not including the 3 votes of Tom Doshi's PSD, it would be more comfortable if he had the votes of Sali Berisha's opposition for specific laws, including the new Penal Code, or a new Electoral Code.

Therefore, it is not surprising that both parliamentary groups are led by names that are not known for political aggression, despite the language that the leaders of the respective parties may use towards each other. 

Ultimately, politics in Albania has shown that bargaining begins in the Parliament and ends outside its chamber. / Pamphlet /
