ODIHR Report, Celibashi: CEC received positive evaluations! Politics to complete

The Head of the Central Election Commission, Ilirjan Celibashi, has reacted after the publication of the ODIHR report on the May 11 parliamentary elections in Albania.

Celibashi says that the institution he leads has received positive evaluations for almost everything. But he calls on politicians to work on finalizing electoral reform.

Celibashi's message:

It will be a sign of seriousness and institutional and political responsibility of all actors related to the electoral process to work on the findings and recommendations of the ODIHR Final Report on the May 11 elections, as a complete overview of these elections.

Judgments and assessments upon judgments and assessments by “election judges” are of no use. Political parties, especially parliamentary ones, should commit to completing a meaningful electoral reform within a year.

Regarding the CEC: The positive evaluations - for almost everything this institution did regarding the preparation and administration of these elections - are an incentive to do even better what needs to be done.
