The leader of "Albania Becomes", Adriatik Lapaj, who emerged as the winner from the open lists of the "Albania Becomes Initiative" coalition in the May 11 elections in the Tirana district, states that his mandate is not at risk and he is in good faith of the agreement they made in the coalition.
This was his reaction today after the news that one of the candidates on the closed list, Zeqir Kordhoni, requested that his resignation signature be verified at the CEC, as he did not remember submitting it.
Lapaj said that the closed list was drafted with family members of the political coalition representatives, with the aim of getting them to resign, and this political path was chosen to oppose the Electoral Code that the SP-PD approved for closed lists, as a sign of protest.
Lapaj said that Kordhoni is a candidate from Endri Shabani's "Nisma Thurrje", with whom there is no rift and this political formation continues to be united.
On the other hand, he has stated that Kordhoni has zero chance of getting the mandate, as there are many others above him. Which means that if the war breaks out, names above Kordhoni could emerge to seek the mandate.
" We entered this battle for principles and brought a different model. We followed this path to oppose the famous Electoral Code through resignations and ran on open lists. Mr. Kordhoni is part of the lists, family members were included on the closed list. I will meet him without any problem, face to face, they are our family members, to my knowledge they have resigned. I had no information at all about Kordhoni, he is a candidate of the Nisma Thurrje. Don't worry, I am on the ground. We are stronger and more determined than before. Any approach by the government to hinder us does not work ," he said.
Lapaj said that this candidacy path was chosen in good faith, while Kordhoni is far down the list to become an MP. He expressed confidence that he is not jeopardizing his mandate and that these were maneuvers by the government, as they are scared.
" My mandate is not at risk. Mr. Kordhoni is far down the list, it does not exist. He is part of Shabani's list. I am in good faith in this case, if someone treats him differently, he will receive the answer as a servant of the state. We have no problems with Mr. Shabani. They cannot turn me back even with blackmail, threats and interference. In our coalition, everything is going well, there are no flaws ," Lapaj emphasized.
