Deputy Chairman of the Democratic Party, Nikola Kedhi, stated that the patriotic majority of Albanians is today against autocracy and that citizens have been affected in their dignity. He called for the opposition to unite with the aim of toppling Prime Minister Edi Rama. Kedhi said he shares the same concerns as the young people who have taken to the streets in protest.
According to him, young people and their families have been affected in their dignity because they cannot move forward and do not find recognition. He added that a young person today cannot buy an apartment or even rent one. “Today the patriotic majority is against autocracy. The young people are heroes; they have a victorious approach.
The DP will support the young people, because we have a patriotic duty,” the deputy chairman of the DP said. He also accused the Police of violence during the protest, calling it barbaric and saying that its actions seemed as if it were facing an enemy army. Candidates for the local elections Asked whether the Democratic Party has its list of candidates ready for the local elections, Nikola Kedhi replied that the party has many figures with value and that the names will be announced soon.
According to him, a meeting is expected to be held where candidates will be selected, while the invitation is open to everyone. “Anyone who considers themselves a patriot and anyone who is against autocracy, which in fact is a minority, should join. Albania demands that we as the opposition unite and topple autocracy,” he said.
Kedhi stressed that the Democratic Party’s or the opposition’s candidate for Tirana must be a politician, because, in his view, everything is political, even when the demand is simple.
