The Democratic Party of Albania has presented a resolution in the Parliament today, requesting a position change on the United Nations Resolution on Jerusalem. The Democrats require debates in the parliament over the unacceptable act of the Albanian government, which voted pro UN Resolution and against the US President Trump decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

“Aiming to keep the peace and stability in the Middle East and the world; being aware of the indispensable role the United States plays and will play on the solution of conflicts, coexistence and establishing the democracy in the region; considering the United States as the main strategic partner of our country, free Kosovo, Albanians in Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and wherever they are; by expressing our friendship to the State of Israel, a friendly and democratic country in the Middle East; by expressing our friendship to the Palestinian people and supporting its right for a stable state through negotiations and agreements… and being worried by the Albanian government’s vote in favor of the Resolution on the Status of Jerusalem, dated December 21, 2017, in the General Assembly of the United Nations…, the Democratic Party demands from the government:

To distance itself officially and publically from the Final Communications and the Statement of the Summit of the Islamic Cooperation Organization of December 13, 2017.

Revise its vote for the UN Resolution on Jerusalem of December 21, 2017, in accordance with UN regulations and declare a non-approving position towards the aforementioned Resolution”, the Democratic Party says in the request to the parliament.
