Bardhi reacted after the statements of Prime Minister Rama from Lezha, regarding the approval in the Assembly of reforms that require 84 votes, such as the electoral reform.

According to him, “Edi Rama has no interest in making any reform that serves the Albanian citizens.”

“The public statement that he is consciously backing out of the Electoral Reform Commission not to give Albanians a consensual and comprehensive reform that guarantees the minimum standards for free and fair elections, once again shows the dangerous anti-democratic mindset of the Prime Minister of Albania to cling to power using anti-democratic means.”
According to him, “today’s statements of Edi Rama once again prove that the battle of the opposition in the Parliament is just.”
