The head of the Democratic Party (PD) parliamentary group, Gazment Bardhi, spoke about the possibility that Ilir Alimehmeti could be the opposition’s candidate for the Mayor of Tirana.
Bardhi described Alimehmeti as a very good candidate, but stressed that the selection must go through dialogue and the structures of the Democratic Party.
“Mr. Alimehmeti would be an excellent opposition candidate for Tirana. However, I do not want to announce candidacies through the media, for two reasons: first, we must give this dialogue and this broad consensus I am talking about a chance, and second, we will need to give room to the bodies within the PD to designate the official candidates of the PD. But yes, Mr. Alimehmeti is a candidate who, in my assessment, would be a very serious, very good offer against Rama’s candidacy in the Municipality of Tirana”, Bardhi said on A2CNN.
