PD MP praises Bajram Begaj: He will have my respect, but SP made his figure
Bajram Begaj

Democratic Party MP, Dashnor Sula has praised the figure of the SP candidate for president, Bajram Begaj, but further adds that his name became dirty by the majority.

In a post on social media, he said that the election of a military president is important at a time when Russia has been attacking barbarically every day for more than three months to invade Ukraine, and the Balkans remain a "gunpowder barrel". 

Sula further writes that the SP made his candidacy dirty, as it did not respect the agreement reached in the eyes of all Albanians to have a consensual candidate. The MP says that Bajram Begaj will have his respect, maybe all the opposition, but they can not legitimize the authoritarian behavior of the majority.

Full response:

The majority defiles the presidential candidate Bajram Begaj.

Albania has infinitely honest individuals worthy of becoming president. The potential candidate is from the right, the left or out of politics, accomplished professionals.

Such is General Bajram Begaj. A wise man who has stood out for his professionalism and dedication to the tasks he has held. Doctor, Associate Professor. An ambitious man who has climbed the career ladder. A general who has known how to maintain and respect relations with international partners.

In this regard, placing a military-trained president at the helm of the Presidency is important. The Head of State is the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces and receives any information regarding the Armed Forces. Recall that we are living in a time when Russia for more than three months attacks every day barbarically to invade Ukraine. The Balkans still remain a "powder keg". Meanwhile, the United States of America and NATO give a special importance to Albania where the NATO military base is being built in Kuçova. This forces us to be serious and trusting with our partners. The President also plays a role in this relationship as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.

But this majority tarnishes the name of the General. The Socialist Party did not respect the agreement reached in the eyes of all Albanians to have a consensual candidate. The President according to the Constitution is the representative of the unity of the people and stands above the political parties. It is therefore imperative that the head of state be consensual. The majority, which is accustomed to occupying all powers, refused to have a joint proposal.

The general will have my respect, maybe the whole opposition, but we can not legitimize the authoritarian behavior of this majority.
