The Albanian Association has stated its participation in months of negotiations concerning amendments to the Electoral Code. During these discussions, the association put forth proposals covering various aspects, including the structure of electoral units, the financing model, and several other related matters. The association noted that its contributions were guided by a commitment to achieving broad consensus among the involved parties.
Despite these efforts toward compromise, the Albanian Association maintained a firm stance on one key issue. The party reiterated that it will not abandon its demand that members of the diaspora be permitted to vote in local elections. The association emphasized that while it engaged in substantive discussions on multiple fronts—presenting specific ideas regarding the electoral framework and funding mechanisms—its primary non-negotiable point remains the inclusion of diaspora voting rights in local polls.
The group warned that if this specific demand is not met, the Albanian Association intends to continue obstructing the final approval of the revised electoral law.
