TIRANA, May 17 /ATA/- Elected MP of the Democratic Party Ina Zhupa said today that if the elections were fair, the leader of the Democratic Party Lulzim Basha would resign.
During a TV interview, Zhupa said that, “If the elections were held to the minimum standard, Lulzim Basha would have resigned, but this is not something that can happen when the elections, as the Democratic Party describes them, were an electoral massacre.”
“If we had free and fair elections, at least with the minimum of democratic standards, Lulzim Basha would have resigned and he confirmed this yesterday at the meeting we had at the National Council, where everyone without exception knows that we have not managed to have free and fair elections, rather we have a pair of alienated and manipulated choices. Under these conditions, we cannot call the election thief a winner and steal a success,” she said.
Also, Zhupa said that so far we have two candidates running for party chairman, Basha and Kadilli, but until May 23 there may be other candidates.
Regarding the shift of the date of the elections for the chairman of the Democratic Party from July to June 13, Zhupa said that it happened because tourism is more developed during July./p.s./
