The government decided to extend the validity of expired identity documents to enable voting in the May 11 elections, A2 CNN reports.
"This created situation will very quickly resolve the impasse. There are about 500 thousand citizens whose identity cards have expired. With the approval of this act, all Albanian citizens will vote according to the instructions of the CEC, by registering on the electronic platform," said Interior Minister Ervin Hoxha.
Asked whether voting will be possible for people living abroad and who do not have an Albanian identification document, the minister replied: "This is not possible, as the law does not provide for it. Everyone else will now have the opportunity to register with the CEC." (A2 Televizion)
