The two powerful figures in the PS, its founder Nano and its future, Meta, must find a political understanding. Otherwise, Berisha will return to power, leaving room for a third political force.

The scandal of recent days concerning the publication of the minutes of the talks of the American Secretary of State, Mrs. Ollbrajt, which led to the ousting of Deputy Foreign Minister Ben Blushi, has created ideal conditions for speculation about the existence of a conflict between PS leader, the shrewd Nano, and Prime Minister, the energetic Meta. Secretary of State, Mrs. Ollbrajt, which led to the ousting of Deputy Foreign Minister Ben Blushi, has created ideal conditions for speculation about the existence of a conflict between PS leader, the shrewd Nano, and Prime Minister, the energetic Meta. In this regard, matters have gone so far as to envisage irreversible divorces, with early elections as their only limit. The credibility of the hypotheses warning of a fierce Nano-Meta duel is undoubtedly also affected by disagreements between the Prime Minister and the party leader over various issues. For example, while Nano, keen to prevent the electorate from shrinking, calls for the punishment of his ministers implicated in illegal affairs, Meta, feeling a certain sudden division in his executive work as well, is more reserved on this matter. It is no wonder that the head of Government harbors some suspicion about the true intentions of his party leader. But the truth is quite different. Nano and Meta, despite their disagreements on some matters, are two sides of the same coin. While Meta and his team govern the country only thanks to the votes of the party to which he belongs, the party itself will retain power only by providing the Government with comprehensive support, putting its party structures at its service as well, to ensure the success of the government. The very clash between Nano and Meta, which came about after Majko’s resignation, rests on such a basis. Neither Nano nor Meta can ignore the negative influence of their rivals, who, to gain a larger share for themselves, stir up conflicts within the PS to play one faction or the other. Specifically, in the “Blushi” case, the fire was fanned mostly by the Foreign Minister, who belongs to an allied party and was on the verge of ...
