Godo to the President, the toppled government and emigration

The PD National Council will decide on the executive today by secret ballot The general tone of the midday discussions was recorded by members of the PD, with concerned expressions supporting calls for a coalition government on the argument that the new government should be made up of democrats, since a party does not have enough votes from its supporters alone, Sali Berisha stated at the Presidency, arguing that the politics of the year had become untenable and had hindered the PD and others. The Socialist Party refuses the President. Godo: Not stubborn. Shehu: You are Marxists. No parliamentary exception was expected; the decision of all party forums, as well as developments today, have helped, as he explains, in concluding that the government was completely appropriate for the coming days. He gives a kind of accurate assessment of the situation. Meanwhile, for the member parties of the council on the question of the President, it had been requested that this duty belongs to the President of the Republic; under these circumstances, in the interview. Berisha, such an action is ready to make a kind of logical assessment of the responsibility of each party, said that no great additional considerations would be taken for society and developments of the - interference; none from anyone; a kind of government with the special participation of the public, which values those developments not for elections, but for opinion in any case. It seems that each part of the work, parliamentary government, governance with its hands and thoughts, but also in his rightful inclusion born with the rules of voting that he has in the PD, or the support given to him, has approached with the name by which these internal changes were taken, in order to lay out other political solutions for the country, to find a way out for the country, with the idea that the new coalition government again weighs on all three. Shehu: These grievances must be overcome! In his analysis he gives a kind of clarification about the "position and reform" in the PD, which is right in the way it has been discussed and in the abundant argumentation that has been made for solutions in the party, but also in government. Berisha is not a dreamer, but a politician who clearly knows what the problems are in the present and in the future. This means that the new government must be representative of the left. "What matters for the President, in the Albanian Parliament, should be someone who is integrated and international in such a range, meaning that he should be supported by part of the PD and in accordance with the program of this party, therefore he has made another effort that deserves appreciation," he said. Meanwhile, yesterday, the chairman of the Democratic Party, Berisha, held a meeting with the members of the PD National Council and its deputies, through which he gave clarifications about the latest political developments. In this meeting, Berisha emphasized that the PD is being united by a spirit of responsibility and that it was necessary to protect democracy in the country. "The PS in this country is not a democratic party," Berisha said, stressing that he would ask the new government to be a government with the participation of democrats. He asked that this request be taken as the responsibility of each individual. In this meeting, Berisha also appreciated the fact that, according to him, the opposition after 26 May had not been ready to cooperate with the PD. On the other hand, after asking them to maintain a clear, calm, and responsible stance, Berisha stressed that every attitude toward the created situation should be evaluated with a cool head. In this context, he expressed confidence that the PD would continue to be an important factor for the stability of the country.

Shehu: Let it proceed when the time comes

"The round table has undoubtedly posed a subject for discussion, because the party leaders went around in circles, but under the shadow of their own elections. For me, fundamentally, the round table has failed," Democratic Party Secretary General Tritan Shehu said yesterday in an interview for the newspaper "Republika". Commenting on the importance of round tables, Shehu said that this one had been intended to fulfill the aspirations of the parties in government, but it seems to have been interrupted by outside interference. "However it may have been, it seems that the impetus given to these round tables by certain political forces has also influenced them not to fulfill their main purpose," he added. He further stated that only those entities that are part of the country's political life should participate in such a round table and that there should be no other dialogue format for resolving the crisis. Tritan Shehu stressed that this had not happened because the parties were inexperienced in discussion, but because of the atmosphere created around them by other politicians. In the course of the conversation, he rejected the claim that the government being formed could be the opposite of the Democratic Party. "For me, the most important thing is to find a solution that must be in line with the position of the PD and have nothing to do with other forces outside it," Shehu added. He also stressed that the current crisis should be resolved through a temporary government so as not to endanger the country's stability. In this context, he called for political solutions to be cautious and not driven by temporary emotions. The PD chairman for Tirana, Genc Ruli, stated that one should not speak of an extraordinary government, but of a government of political normality. He emphasized that any solution must be tied to the PD program and to its responsibility toward the country. On the other hand, he stressed that inter-party relations should develop constructively and that unnecessary clashes should be avoided. The PD chairman for Tirana, Genc Ruli.
