The citizens of Albania rightfully expect their parliament to be a forum where its members can present and openly discuss various political proposals. This exchange should take place in peace and be guided by the rules, which the parliament itself has determined.

Therefore, I call on the members of the majority and the opposition in the Assembly to cooperate, in order to guarantee that the parliament fulfills its essential constitutional role: the control of the executive and the legislation in the interest of the citizens represented through the deputies", concludes the reaction. of the German ambassador.
