Today, the Democratic Party elects Lulzim Basha again and starts the fight for catharsis from the past

Today, the Democratic Party elects Lulzim Basha again and starts the fight for

Today, the Democratic Party is expected to head to the ballot box to elect its chairman, who without any discussion will have a reconfirmation of Lulzim Basha. As always in Albania, when the moment of election losses comes, coup groups immediately arise that want to oust the mayor in office to put someone else, who can guarantee the victory of the elections. Kadilli came out first, followed by Harxhi and Agron Shehaj, turning the battle into a failure story for all the prosperous for the post of new mayor. All the candidacies for the DP leader, except for the lack of low political stature, did not present any convincing program for a winning alternative. The only alternative for Kadilli and Shehaj was to declare Lulzim Basha guilty of losing the elections, without showing how they would come to power in case the PD is led by the respective candidates. Meanwhile, the other candidate, Edit Harxhi, a worthless character in the Democratic Party, catapulted as a friend of Argita Berisha, used the technology of mud. Her extremely imaginative broccoli for Lulzim Basha, for problematic relations with the US, was nothing but the dish cooked in the kitchen of the people who catapulted her into politics. This candidate showed that she is one of the most personalityless characters in the trio of musketeers who are measuring forces with Lulzim Basha. The most culminating moment of the mediocre level of this candidate was the message sent to Sali Berisha to get the leader of the Democratic Party. A candidate for mayor who calls a ghost from the past to return to the helm of the DP.

Many have tried to portray the leadership of the party by Lulzim Basha as a failure, trying to stigmatize him with the negative values ??left on his shoulders from the deeds of his predecessor. A good part of the political circles have tried to present him as a character that the Americans have declared "non grata", trying to float his image as deep as possible through fantasies of this nature. In fact, Lulzim Basha has been in the first days of his catapult best supported by American politics as a young figure who would make the difference in the DP. Since the victory of the municipality of Tirana until today, the behavior of Lulzim Basha has been exemplary in relation to the international factor and the domestic factor, contouring another image of the DP. Lulzim Basha's leadership at the head of the Albanian opposition as never before has made the elections in Albania enter the contour of a normal country without excesses and protests. The May 17 agreement was the starting point of a new opposition policy where undoubtedly Lulzim Basha played a special role in the calm created in the position-opposition relations. From this moment, Basha's opposition was part of international-oriented games. Although he inherited a fierce party with a militant, anarchic and regressive character, Lulzim Basha one day returned him to the rails of peace, giving him a civic face.

Lulzim Basha knew how to maneuver and when the protests were imposed on him by the Berisha-Meta duo, he knew how to attract the exalted crowds at the PD headquarters, breaking the scenarios of violence and quenching the anarchic momentum of the PD and distancing himself from the SMI allies hiding behind the gun of the largest opposition party. All this behavior reached its peak during the elections of April 25, where Lulzim Basha's civic campaign managed to give the DP 185 thousand more votes than in 2017 and 85 thousand more votes than in 2013. Lulzim Basha's DP is undoubtedly the co-founder and main contributor to the implementation of justice reform, which today has begun to bear fruit.

Today closes a chapter in the Democratic Party. Lulzim Basha will be re-elected as chairman of the Democratic Party and is preparing for the next local elections which are on the doorstep. Also, his challenges will be much more difficult, as he will make a radical cleansing in the party to prepare to come to power, above all he must cleanse and differentiate the political group from the shadow of Sali Berisha, who together with Ilir Meta gave colossal political costs in the April 25 elections. Given the non grata declaration by the US of Sali Berisha and his family, the future of the DP should be as far away as possible from the problematic figure of its former leader, for whom bad times are knocking.

Basha's PD is far from Berisha's PD, more representative, more civic and obviously the challenges of the presidency from now on for the current mayor is a struggle to come to power. The invitation of the winners for co-government is on the table of Lulzim Basha and will undoubtedly be a novelty for the country, but also a drastic change for Albanian politics, which has extraordinary tasks for European integration and strong reforms to be carried out. So far, Lulzim Basha has shown that he is an intelligent character with exemplary restraint. Today we will have another DP and soon another political mentality will lead the country, where undoubtedly Lulzim Basha himself will have his weight.
