Tahiri Fires Back at Ilire Dauti: Votes Are Not Won Through Victimhood

Zekirja Tahiri, an MP from VLEN, has responded to statements made during a plenary session by Albanian Alliance MP Ilire Dauti. She had accused Tahiri and Parliament Speaker Afrim Gashi of signing a document drafted in Macedonian, zyrtare.net reports.

In his response, Tahiri called Dauti an “actress,” saying that her accusations were intended to insult him.

“From the outset, I exposed her for what she is: at best, a good actress. I have never been wrong in my assessment of people,” Tahiri wrote.

The VLEN MP also claims that Dauti has “flirted with VMRO and SDSM.” According to him, the Albanian Alliance MP has also signed two documents in Macedonian.

Concluding his post, Tahiri said that likes on social media can be secured, but votes cannot. He added that “playing the victim,” in his view, remains his political opponent’s only strategy, ending his response with the words: “Have a nice vacation.”
