This commission will be the one to decide whether or not Basha\u2019s decision to expel Berisha from the parliamentary group is legitimate.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The second path would be through initiating a motion of no confidence at the National Assembly, which should be backed up by at least half of the members of the National Council.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As a rule, the National Assembly convenes every 4 years \u2013 it is usually called by the chair, the leadership of the party, and\/or by \u00bc of the National Assembly\u2019s members.<\/p>\n<p>After July 17<sup>th<\/sup>\u2019s Assembly, the new National Council of the Democratic Party is made up of 487 members.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever direction Berisha decides to take, these are the 2 most favorable routes, from a legal perspective, that he can take, in order to counter Basha&#8217;s most recent decision to temporarily oust him from the parliamentary group of DP.<\/p>\n<p>In the weeks to come, it will eventually become more apparent what that decision may be and how it will play out for Berisha and the rest of the party.<\/p>\n<p><strong>YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/albania\/2021\/09\/11\/basha-calls-heads-of-dps-branches-after-ousting-berisha-from-parliamentary-group\/\">Basha elaborates reasons behind Berisha\u2019s ousting to heads of local branches<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/albania\/2021\/09\/10\/berisha-well-cooperate-with-party-members-to-put-dp-on-the-pedestal-it-deserves\/\">Berisha: We\u2019ll cooperate with party members to put DP on the pedestal it deserves<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/albania\/2021\/09\/10\/the-pain-i-feel-because-of-my-decision-became-twice-as-great-after-berishas-reaction-said-basha\/\">The pain I feel because of my decision, became twice as great after Berisha\u2019s reaction, said Basha<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September 9 was the day marking the beginning of a divisive and controversial battle within the Democratic Party \u2013 the one between the current leader, Lulzim Basha vs. his predecessor and the party\u2019s historical leader, Sali Berisha.
