However, the party underlined that it will not back down from its demand that the diaspora be given the opportunity to vote in local elections as well. According to it, if this is not made possible, it will continue to block the law signed by several parties.

The full reaction of the Albanian Alliance:

During the several-month meetings between the parties on the Electoral Code, the Albanian Alliance had its own proposals both for the electoral districts and for the financing model, as well as for many other issues. But we were working toward consensus.

The point on which we will not give in is the possibility for the diaspora to vote in local elections as well. It is very simple.

If this is not made possible, we will continue to block the law signed by several parties.

ASH councilor Arlind Murtezani said on “A2CNN” that in Tetovo, which is 90% Albanian, Yugoslav and communist names have been restored which, according to him, are no longer used even by Serbia.

The party assesses that the Constitutional Court’s decision is part of a series of scandalous rulings by this court, citing as examples the repeal of the Balancer Law and the attempt to abolish the Law on the Use of Languages.

According to ASH, this situation is the result of cooperation between the Constitutional Court and the current government, stressing that all these issues had been promoted in VMRO-DPMNE’s platform under the slogan: “Macedonia yours again.”

ASH says that such decisions do not help strengthen the rule of law or build interethnic trust, but, on the contrary, deepen divisions and undermine the principle of equality among citizens.
