Today’s meeting of the Democratic Party parliamentary group continued in the tense atmosphere of the preceding ones, with strong arguments between Chairman Lulzim Basha and former Interior Minister Flamur Noka.

Noka accused Basha of reducing to crumbs his political cause against what he used to call “an electoral massacre”.

Basha objected, saying he has spoken about it in every public appearance.

However, what caught the attention was Basha’s statement that if Democrats want local elections it could be arranged in two weeks. The declaration brought Noka’s next reaction. He said that proves there is an agreement between Basha and Socialist Premier Edi Rama.

Basha made efforts to avoid the argument, but Noka insisted Basha’s words are proof of accords between him and Rama.
