The chairman of the official Democratic Party, Lulzim Basha, in a conference with journalists, was also asked about the possibility of the merger of the DP and the possibility of a dialogue with Berisha.
Basha said that they are not the ones who have ruled out cooperation and there has never been a lack of will to find better ways.
He has informed that even on September 9, when he made the decision to remove Berisha, he told him that “you have these merits, but put them aside so as not to cost you, yours, DP and Albania.”
Basha: First, I am not the one who excluded dialogue, coordination and cooperation for a greater goal such as the confrontation of the majority, which is more powerful than ever due to the weakening of the opposition.
There has been no lack of will to find better ways. Even Sali Berisha on September 9, you have these merits, put them aside so that you, yours, DP and Albania do not receive these costs.
My positions are not directed against an individual, but only in the interest of the Democrats.
The mud that they throw at me, they know very well that they are lying, because they have witnessed the high price that the president has paid to protect the interest of DP.
What I can say is that we are not the party that attacks or opposes the possibility of cooperation.
Even at this moment we are demonstrating the desire to reactivate many potentials that have been passive as a result of the internal war and not only to have a union, but to be able to bring the contemporary will for change.
Thus we welcome and encourage the approach of those who want to contribute to the next PD.
The deadlines for the lists are determined by the electoral code and we will respect them.
