The Socialists went to the plenary session with their heads bowed. The news of Erion Veliaj's arrest had put them in a difficult position.
The Democrats took advantage of this situation thanks to the action of SPAK and entered parliament with a demand in mind.
The plenary session hall was filled more with Democrats than Socialists, since the agenda also called for open discussions and the use of force was unnecessary. Thus, the ones who made the most noise were the opposition's accusers.
The burden of the debate on behalf of the majority this time fell on Elisa Spiropali, who attempted several times to bring the session to an early close.
The heated debate in the hall seems to have broken the silence of an old socialist.
Monday's session was the first part of the parliamentary debate on Erion Veliaj, as the second is expected to be on Thursday, where changes to the Electoral Code are also on the agenda for voting. (A2 Televizion)
