The old man with a stick in his hand rebukes the chairman of the session, the

The Municipal Council meeting in Maliq, which was called out of turn to discuss Territorial Reform, was abandoned by left-wing councilors. 

The meeting lasted about 20 minutes, while the agenda included the approval of the official position of the Maliq Municipal Council, to be forwarded to the Albanian Parliament within the framework of the process of reviewing the administrative-territorial division.

As Top Channel correspondent Dhorjela Çule reports, the meeting was scheduled to take place at around 10:00, but due to the statement of the left-wing councilors' group, where they said they would not express their decision-making regarding the proposal that should be sent to Parliament, the chairman of the Council declared the meeting closed. This has caused reactions from opposition councilors and citizens.

The hall was emptied of left-wing councilors within seconds, while the rest of the opposition continued with their statements.

Meanwhile, an elderly man entered the hall with a stick in his hand, opposing the closing of the meeting and arguing with the Mayor of the City Council.
