The parties made their proposals, but the president will “seal” the decision
June, the month preferred by Albanian politicians for holding the elections.
Yesterday, after passing through the presidential threshold, the leaders of the seven main parties spoke with one political voice, wanting the 1996 elections to begin their political opening in the first two weeks of June. Berisha, too, has “rushed” toward the same opinion, saying “yes” to the parties’ wish and promising that “he will try to take it into consideration.”
