The chairman of the official Democratic Party, Lulzim Basha, in a statement to the media, said that the DP will not participate tomorrow in the plenary session where the Criminal Amnesty is expected to be voted on.
Basha set a condition by demanding that the PD amendment be accepted for the protesters, in order to vote for the amnesty.
We remind you that the government needs 84 votes to pass the law, as it has 74 votes, while Bashe PD has 11.
“So today I want to make it clear that PD will not only not be part of this maneuver, but will do everything to prove that the main threat of the fight against impunity is Edi Rama.
PD encourages prosecutors and judges to continue their work. A reformed judiciary has the duty to investigate and punish the officials involved.
PD will not participate in tomorrow’s parliamentary session and it is without a doubt that it is our expectation that no one becomes the crutch of this corrupt and criminal act that aims to free and relieve corrupt officials.
It is our responsibility that you do not become part of this criminal act. If there is a withdrawal from this possible and scandalous admission, the PD will review its decision.” said Basha.
Basha emphasized that his condition is the inclusion of the amendment for the protesters.
“There is a political factor that is PD, which will continue to give full support to SPAK and GJKKO. Our condition is the acceptance of our amendment for the protesters. It’s about people who stood up for their properties and families. They would be the first to benefit from the criminal amnesty. They have often remained victims of corruption, we are in the conditions of complete inadmissibility of this corrupt and criminal condition”, added Basha.
The condition is the acceptance of our amendment for the protesters. It’s about people standing up for their property, their homes, their political beliefs. It is an insurmountable condition,” he added.
