Luan Baçi, an MP of the Democratic Party, told Euronews Albania that the removal of Sali Berisha from the parliamentary group was a decision that should have been taken by the party’s forums, making it less contestable.
Overall, Baçi believes that this is a political decision of the US State Department.
Instead, he added that the decision could have only been taken if party members were to vote, especially when it comes to expelling one of its founders.
The Democrat MP said that recent tensions have shadowed the “real tasks” of the opposition.
“In that regard, we need to make an apology due to the recent developments in Albanian politics, but especially within the Democratic Party. Pretty much the focus has shifted inside DP’s debate, overshadowing the real battle we need to do against corruption and the government”, Baçi said.
Despite the decision of Lulzim Basha, Baçi asserted that he will align with the Democrats.
“Basha and Berisha are both important personalities of the Democratic Party. I absolutely respect them, but the DP is big.”
