The elections showed that we\u2019re going through multiple crises here at the DP and this can be indicated also by disappointed Democrats. We\u2019re going through a crisis and everybody must admit that\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the party of freedom and sacrifices; it is the party that promoted democracy in Albania. We all want this home, therefore I call on all sides, to sit down and unravel our platforms on how to walk towards victory\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>The former deputy chair of the youth forum also said that in order to overcome the hurdle, the first step is to admit that there is a crisis and then unchain the communication channels within the party in order to find a solution.<\/p>\n<p>There have been several developments inside the party\u2019s headquarters, reportedly a group of attorneys gathered to document several violations committed during the campaign as well as during the vote-counting process.<\/p>\n<p>Also, today DP\u2019s leader Basha met with representatives of the Democratic Party from Shkodra, Fier, Korca, and Elbasan.<\/p>\n<p>Another meeting that took place was between a delegation from the Slovenian Embassy and DP\u2019s secretary on foreign affairs, but there is no information on the topic of their discussion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/elections\/2021\/04\/30\/kadilli-announces-candidature-lulzim-basha-should-resign-he-failed-the-elections\/\">Kadilli announces candidature: Lulzim Basha should resign, he failed the elections<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/elections\/2021\/04\/28\/basha-should-step-down-dp-members-request-meeting-of-the-national-council-to-analyze-defeat\/\">\u2018Basha should step down\u2019, DP members request meeting of the National Council to analyze defeat<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/elections\/2021\/04\/27\/lulzim-basha-these-polls-were-an-electoral-massacre-we-wont-give-up\/\">Lulzim Basha: These polls were an electoral massacre; we won\u2019t give up<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supporters of the Democratic Party have announced plans to protest in front of the party\u2019s headquarters calling for the resignation of Lulzim Basha after the defeat at the polls.
