"I have not spoken to Rama about my candidacy for Tirana",
Erion Brace

Socialist Party MP Erion Braçe has stated that he has not spoken to Prime Minister Edi Rama about running for mayor of Tirana.

Through a post on social media, Brace said that the SP should elect its representatives through a vote of its membership.

According to Braça, the principle of voting in the SP has been lost for years and has been replaced by notices on the wall, made according to him by unvoted and unvotable people.

Braca's post:

Everyone's Tirana

answer to all the hints of the two weeks;

1. I have not spoken to Edi Rama about my candidacy.

2. Edi Rama did not ask me to run.

3. my interest is principles, issues related to them, service to the city, not attacks on anyone

I repeat: I don't play, I don't make fun of the request,

neither with the city nor its people!

1. No, I have not spoken to Edi Rama about my candidacy; It is not a lack of respect; on the contrary, it is respect for what he is - the leader of the Socialist Party, the first equal among equals in a party that must choose with the votes of its members, sympathizers, the left as a whole, the people they want to represent and the path they should follow. These are the principles of August 2005 that make a difference and I stand by them, especially when it has come to the point that competition, merit, votes, have been replaced by wall announcements, done, and that have made unvoted and unvotable people, leaders at various levels.

2. NOOO, EDI RAMA DID NOT PUSH ME TO RUN, STARTING FROM HIS NEEDS, OF THE SP AT THIS MOMENT, MINE AS HONOR OR QOKE, THE NEED TO REMOVE OGERTA MANASTIRLIUN FROM THIS RACE IN THIS WAY; anyone who knows me knows very well that if these were the reasons, I would be the first to refuse, as I have often done at different times. I want to remind you that I clearly expressed the idea of ​​running at the meeting of the Assembly of the SP of unit 5; that is, within the structures of the SP - not outside it, it was a mature idea and an answer to thousands of people of this city that I have met in its neighborhoods and streets, an answer also to thousands of socialists of this city with whom I have discussed this. To clarify, I have asked for a broad, inclusive, democratic, and non-career-focused process!

3. NOOO, IT IS NOT AN ATTACK AND I DID NOT DARE TO ATTACK EDI RAMA FOR THIS; In so many years in politics and public service, I DO NOT DEAL WITH PEOPLE, THE PERSON, THE INDIVIDUAL, I deal with principles, issues that stem from and are related to the way principles are implemented and that have an impact on people's lives. I mean, I have responded to the needs of this city for a year, sporadically even before. Now it is more serious: this city has neither been self-governing nor being governed for a year. It is in free fall in every aspect, especially law and order, SERVICES for its people. This is my concern, I want to face it; the complete reform of processes and the return of a better service to make it a city for everyone, not just those who only benefit. So my goal is to give the city back the work it started, not the attacks on everyone; JUST AS I AM DOING EVERY DAY IN UNIT 5 THE DEPUTY THAT IT HAS NOT HAD FOR 4 YEARS, SO I WILL DO THE CHIEF WORKER FOR THE CITY AND ITS PEOPLE!
