“Sic shows even O report The SEU for international monitoring last year's elections, vote buying and misuse of public funds continue to be a major problem in Albanian politics. As long as politicians are able to co-operate with criminals to buy, blackmail and drag voters, Albanian democracy will remain fragile and incomplete. Other changes are now needed, as well as electoral reform”, the paperwork is further said.
