“The President of the Republic Ilir Meta has acted in the wrong way after sending a letter to the JAC to suspend the deadline by presenting completely unconstitutional and groundless arguments under no law over a non-negotiable but mandatory 30-day constitutional deadline.

In a letter sent to the Justice Appointment Council, President Ilir Meta has stated that he refuses to nominate another judge at the Constitutional Court, because the Constitution dictates that after Parliament, the High Court should nominate the third candidate.//a.i/
