Peleshi will no longer be the defence minister but the chairman of the Socialist Party's parliamentary group after recent changes in the government.
In a statement to the media after the CONGRESS of the SP, he said he was not aware of the dismissal.
Rama has delivered strong messages and articular ambitions for Albania 2030, the "MP I Want" initiative is much bigger news than our political movements. I didn't know. No need for consultation for a man who is 100% in politics like me.
I am probably the oldest minister in this government, it would be very naive of me to have a negative notion at some point when I take on another task. I have the nature of seeing money, I am glad that with the last pre-session we managed to pass 6 laws in the defense sector," Peleshi said.
