Invited to the Voice of America studio in Washington, MP Agron Shehaj declared for the first time that he is working to create a political party.
Separated from the Democratic Party, Shehaj told the Voice of America that he found it impossible for the DP to become a reliable alternative for Albanians.
"The reason (for breaking away from DP) is the fact that it could not continue in that way. I saw a lack of direction, a lack of will and a plan to renew the Democratic Party, to open up the Democratic Party, which is the only way we can become credible to the electorate and give a real alternative to the Albanians." , said Agron Shehaj.
Asked by the Voice of America journalist if this alternative will be a new political force, Shehaj affirmed.
"What I did not have the opportunity to contribute within the DP is what I am working to do outside the DP. I am working on a political project. I'm talking to people, it's certainly not an easy thing. Politics requires perseverance, sacrifice. Especially when you are not willing to compromise.
I think that the dream of every Albanian is to be governed by a non-corrupt government, to have a non-corrupt prime minister", said Agron Shehaj.
