TIRANA, June 8 /ATA/ – By Maela Marini/ The chairman of SP parliamentary group, Taulant Balla, proposed on Monday that May 9, 2021 is a very meaningful date to hold the next parliamentary elections.
“When times comes for President of the Republic to decree the elections date, he should consider May 9, 2021, Europe Day, also the day of victory over fascism,” Balla said while speaking about the amendments to Electoral Code on electoral period.
Regarding local elections in some municipalities, such as Shkodra, Durres, Vora and Rrogozhina, Balla said that “this falls within the competence of President of the Republic who should have exercised his authority.”
Balla also commented on agreement about the Electoral Reform, saying: I am glad that DP withdrew from all its imaginary demands.”
“Our sole demand was implementation of ODIHR recommendations,” he said.
Balla went on saying that decriminalization law was passed with the contribution of all parties involved and it is a very good legal framework that has proved of service for all parties. “It is a very good filter.”
PM Edi Rama has urged more time available for the CEC and Attorney General to double check the list, an issue which was addressed by electoral reform committee,” Balla said.
