Twice Prime Minister, twice Minister of Defense and 8 times MP, Pandeli Majko is one of the four great personalities of Albanian politics.
Placed in Kavajë on the open list for the May 11 elections, Majko reveals that he had considered withdrawing from the elections and, consequently, leaving politics.
“I had doubts about whether to run in the elections or not. Regarding the fact that Edi Rama had declared that he would be on the open list, I told him that it would be strange for me to run against Edi Rama. Up until that point, I had been undecided about whether to run in the elections or not. However, the moment he declared that he would be on the closed list, I agreed and entered the race. But, if he had been on the open list, I don’t think it would be right for me to run against Rama, so I wouldn’t have entered,” said Pandeli Majko.
