Parliament Speaker Niko Peleshi reacted to the chaos and tensions in the Assembly during today's session, stating that it is the obligation of MPs to cooperate.
In a post on social media, Peleshi stated that the interest of the state lies above political interest.
"No political force can claim to represent the truth alone, and no party division should make us forget that we all serve the same country and the same citizens," the head of the Assembly said.
Full post:
The Albanian Parliament is not simply a place of debate, but an institution where the words and behaviors of members of parliament must bear and demonstrate the weight of responsibility and serve understanding, not division.
Any behavior that violates ethics, respect, and the rules of operation of the Assembly seriously damages dignity, undermines representation, and undermines the trust of citizens.
Our obligation is to cooperate for solutions for the good of the country, to develop serious dialogue, not to create chaos.
Above political interest lies the interest of the state. No political force can claim to represent the truth alone, and no party division should make us forget that we all serve the same country and the same citizens.
The institutions of the Republic are a shared value, not an arena for personal or partisan battles. Preserving, strengthening, and respecting them is a responsibility that unites us beyond our political divisions.
Only when we put the state above the party can we build a stronger Albania for generations to come. Respect for the Assembly is respect for the Republic, respect for the citizens.
Gratitude to the employees of the Republican Guard and the services of the Assembly, for their correctness and responsibility in carrying out their duties.
