Government changes, before July 28th

The time of political operations within the majority, suspended by the extension of the local elections, is approaching.

Democratic Party sources said for “Shqip” that the government changes will not be made in September, but earlier, before the closure of the parliamentary session. The last parliamentary session is set on July 28th, before the Members of Parliament start their summer holidays.

The end of the electoral process in Tirana is expected to also fill the vacancies in the government of Prime Minister Berisha. Sources of the Democratic Party declared that the vacancies that were created after the resignation of two former ministers of the cabinet for participating in May 8th elections, will be filled right after the Electoral College will declare the winner of the Tirana mayoral race.

According to this data, the vacancies in the government will be filled by the middle of July, a time in which is expected to end the legal battle for Tirana Municipality. The reason why the majority has not made any efforts for filling the vacancies is connected with the “fear” that they have for the result of Former Minister Basha in this battle. A strong democratic candidate as Basha, who was able to win half of Tirana’s votes, cannot stay out of the government if he will lose the mayoral race.
