Officially required Meta download, Balla: Request surrendered to the Assembly

The head of the Parliamentary Group of the Socialist Party, Taulant Balla, came out today at a media conference, where he has officially confirmed the request for the dismissal of President Ilir Meta, who, according to him, has surrendered to the Assembly today.

According to Balla, cancelling June 30th and not setting another date denies the sovereign's right to be such, and that is a step that breaks sovereign authority. “Through this act of president, the deputy said The SP's, it's marked exit beyond” competencies.

During his speech, MP Balla said the president of the Republic, in the exercise of competencies granted by the Constitution, has issued the decree for the appointment of the local government's election date, which is June 30th.

The “in fulfillment of the election implementation has been set up, the KZAZ, prepared and announced voter lists, party registrations conducted, lists have been deposited and campaigns have begun. While the election procedure has begun, the president has issued the decree to abolish elections on June 30th, 2019.

The reasons given by the president have to do with deep concern for the political situation, that current conditions would ensure real comprehensive elections, the conviction that this is the way to solve the crisis and that it is based on the Constitution. This is openly contrary to constitutional principles. First, the principle of the exercise of sovereignty by the people has been seriously violated. Sovereignty belongs to the people directly or through his chosen ones.

In that sense, he has removed the sovereign from himself. The June 30th annulment and the failure of another date deny the sovereign's right to be such. This is a step that undermines sovereign authority. Through this act of the President has been marked exit beyond competencies. The Sovereign has determined when the” elections will be held, Balla said. / TCh/
