During a public appearance at the Albanian Parliament, Prime Minister Sali Berisha addressed the media while proceeding through the Toptani Palace gate, accompanied by Belind Këlliçi and Klevis Balliu. The atmosphere outside the legislative building was marked by tension, as police were observed dispersing protesting citizens using water cannons. Addressing journalists, Berisha stated that the current political situation necessitated a fundamental change in the legislative body’s status.
He asserted that the only responsible course of action for the parliament was to declare its end and dissolve itself. According to reports from A2cnn, Berisha argued that such a dissolution was necessary to facilitate elections, which he claimed were demanded by the youth and the Albanian citizenry. “Parliament is gathered in a circle!
Its only responsible act is to declare its end, its dissolution, and to open the way for the election that all the youth and Albanian citizens demand,” Berisha told reporters. He further contended that any action other than dissolution would diminish the prime minister’s credibility. Therefore, he concluded that the self-closure and dissolution of the parliament represented the only just decision available to the body on that day.
The head of the PD emphasized that the institution itself needed to initiate this process.
