Analyst Andi Bushati spoke in the studio of the show “Te Paespozuarit” on MCN TV against the decision of the group led by Gazment Bardhi to renounce the DP faction and join unconditionally with the group led by Sali Berisha. But Bardhi said that they are united in diversity and speak their opinion freely after no problem within the opposition led by Berisha.
Part of the conversation
Andi Bushati: Berisha, without Basha, without Bardhi, proved it with half a million votes, which are few for an opposition. The problem is that, I don’t agree that we should put these Americans at all, but there is a part of the right-wing electorate that likes to play the flute in this hole as well. So why that faction that Mr. Bardhi said we gave up, should we? There should have been an influx in the DP as they said at the beginning that for us it is a problem that we have a non grata at the head of the party, that we can take Sali Berisha as prime minister with non grata. Now we are against the culture of giving. There was a small group of PD who were PD-ists, but not Parists. Not only would you guarantee your seats and positions, but you would also guarantee a spirit beyond the half million who voted for Berisha in May. And a non-berish pd-ist would have a place. Your fear of joining, because Berisha has electoral strength, is the historical leader, is a machine that has ground every kind of meat within that structure. The fear is that you will be absorbed by Berishism, without having this guarantee, a lever.
Gazment Bardhi: This, in my judgment, would apply if the way parties work would have a factional agreement. We are united in diversity, call it a faction if you want, call it what you want.
Andi Bushati: Faction with institutional guarantees, we have not pledged.
Gazment Bardhi: Faith is also the faction. He thinks otherwise. It would be the opinion of a minority and would not affect the decision. The only value that the faction has is the opportunity that a group within the party has to freely express their opinion, their position, as I am for Berisha’s non-women and I have complete freedom to say this publicly in the party’s institutions and I will continue to say it even when to have Mr. Berisha by his side. This has been respected and will be respected.
Andi Bushati: Not for your seat, but for the influx, that is, for something more than the half million opposition voters who are pro-Party. It’s about how you bring people closer together
If Sali Berisha blows a whistle tomorrow with one vote member, you have Argita Malltezin as president, I will bring you Argita without asking anyone. Berisha means vote there. If he will, he may not do it. If he wants to, when he makes the lists of deputies, Berisha will melt the whole group that approached there, saying: go and vote for the membership. And out of 20, you get 3. I think it is in Berisha’s best interest to give you institutional power as a strong, articulate minority with a guarantee that there will be real life in this party.
