The two deputies of the Democratic Party, Ervin Salianji and Grida Duma arrived a few minutes ago in the Assembly, where the session for the voting of Bajram Begaj as President of the Republic will take place. They speak out against the boycott.
In a statement to the media before the start of the session, Salianji said that they have not gained anything from the process of electing the President, because according to him, Rama does not release anything.
"The Democratic Party has been burned, but it bears costs from the past. Since the beginning of this process, I have been against sitting with Edi Rama. It is indisputable that there are representatives of the Democratic Party who, out of political ignorance, sit down and create perceptions as if the Democratic Party is participating in the process. We have not gained anything from this process, Edi Rama does not release anything. He pulled the President out of his envelopes. I am here to respect the institutions. I will not take part in the vote. "I am not in favor of a boycott, but I will not take part in the vote," said Salianji.
While the Duma said that the institutions should be respected, while regarding Bagaj's candidacy, she said that she does not prejudice him.
"I was against the boycott," he said. Despite the suspicion I had I knew how to criticize the boycotts. There should be no boycott.
I said the attitude, I know the profile a little, the individual Bega. Anyway I have nothing to say about him as a personality because I know him a little. I do not prejudge for better or for worse. I know there is a lot to do for institutions to enjoy democracy. I said that the President should have been proposed by the opposition, but we came here. " tha Duma.
