Clash in DP over Parliament boycott: Salianji calls it a service to Rama, Tabaku, Leskaj and Zhupa oppose Berisha’s decision

Yesterday’s parliamentary session took place without the presence of Democratic Party MPs, a move harshly criticized by former lawmaker Ervin Salianji.

He interpreted this as a favor Sali Berisha is doing for Edi Rama.

Discontent was not limited to Salianji. Within the DP parliamentary group there were dissenting voices, with some MPs openly opposing the decision to abandon the meeting.

Through communication in the Democratic MPs’ group, Jorida Tabaku stressed that absence from Parliament strips opposition representatives of the only public space to confront the majority, recalling that this path has already been taken and “the consequences are known.”

According to her, every opportunity lawmakers are given for debate must be fully utilized.

MP Bujar Leskaj stood on the same line, calling the session boycott a mistake. He raised the question of what signal the opposition sends by not showing up in the Assembly chamber.

Ina Zhupa also proved critical, supporting the concerns raised by Leskaj and questioning the benefit this action brings to opposition forces.
