The decision taken by Lulzim Basha today to resign as leader of the Democratic Party deserves respect. Putting the party and the country's interests on personal ones is a sign of the true leadership”, said in response.
“Hopefully the decision will determine the way for the Democratic Party to move forward towards the future; it will strengthen Albania's special relationship with the United States; it will reinforce support for reforms and other efforts for Albania's goal of joining the EU, and re-evaluating the democratic principles and ideals on which it was established. A strong opposition that may be willing to lead is essential to democracy. US support for democracy and commitment to fight corruption and impunity remain unchanged”. /A2
