Would he run for Mayor of Tirana? Here's how Blendi Gonxhja answers

The Minister of Tourism, Culture and Sports, Blendi Gonxhja, was asked if he will run for Tirana Mayor in the May 9 elections.

In an interview with Report TV, he stated that he has no ambition or personal project to run, but emphasized that he would be willing to make his contribution if the Socialist Party had such a project.

"In my entire life, it has never happened that I have recited, spoken, prayed, that I have a personal project that I cannot do and unfold."

I am one of many SP MPs, not everyone knows Tirana the same way, not everyone has a heart for Tirana. Like many of those who are active, work, and are engaged, I would leave nothing undone to help the cause, the project.

If the SP had a project, there is no question that I would be here to give my contribution. We must be very careful that this does not sound like Blendi demanding something that Blendi does not decide.

"It is very important that we have good choices, that we have solved this problem that we have before us and that we must channel it into an energy that will benefit the country and not harm Tirana," said Gonxha.
