Prime Minister Majko faces the dilemma of whether or not to punish the government before the PS congress The PSD-PAD contradictions over governance are now out in the open

Messages arriving from Brussels via “Mirge” in Albania have caused a more rational reaction. They aim to publicly express, on the part of the socialists, the sentiment regarding groups and interests that justify the weakening of Majko’s central government. And that is exactly what this reaction is showing. It seems that the prominence of these clashes and the coalition with power, which publicly expressed, on the part of the socialists, the sentiment regarding the group, justified the weakening of Majko’s central government.

And that is exactly what this more rational reaction is showing. They signal that within the majority camp, dissatisfaction with Prime Minister Majko’s governance and with the role of the PSD in the cabinet has begun to emerge clearly. Indeed, on the part of various groupings within the left, there seems to be an effort to divide responsibilities and to call for a reshaping of the government. This debate does not seem to be merely an administrative issue, but a development directly linked to political balances and the internal race for influence. In this context, the reactions of PAD and other political figures are being read as signs of a deeper co-governing crisis. This is a new political picture, in which Majko appears to be facing not only traditional opponents, but also dissatisfied allies within the coalition. The situation suggests that the coming weeks may be decisive for the fate of the cabinet and for the relations between PSD, PAD and other figures of the left.
