The leader of the Democratic Party, Sali Berisha, has revealed some behind-the-scenes information regarding MP Agron Shehaj, who left the DP and founded his own party.
Berisha Agron Shehaj was asked to be part of the coalition under the leadership of the DP and he refused.
Berisha revealed that Shehaj was offered to run for the Tirana municipality and take over the political leadership of Tirana during the campaign, which he did not accept, making his choice.
"Agron Shehaj inexplicably broke away, but I believe that the right to choose is a fundamental human right. Shehaj thought he would have a better future in politics outside the DP, it is his right."
He was offered a coalition with the sole purpose of ensuring that the DP does not miss a single vote from our electorate in the battle with Rama. He refused. He agrees, in a way he contributes to this evil, he gets votes to damage the opposition front.
Agron Shehaj has been made all the offers. He was offered do you want to run for the Tirana municipality? He said no, I want more. He was offered the political leadership of Tirana during the campaign. I respect every choice, but for me there is no more suitable place than here where you are.
He made his choices. I told him not to leave because your place is here. I sent him a message after the coalition was formed: "Order the coalition," like the others, "Let's unite to remove this, then everyone can take their own positions."
"Bylykbashi took it. I asked him to contact him, I told him 'go ahead and order'. He left with an idea, but his idea could never be to harm the DP because this code harms it ," Berisha said on the "Now" show.
