The “civil war” within the Socialist Party/ How did the eliminations

It seems that in the Socialist Partyhas started a fierce ?civil war? for the elimination of each other. After winning a third term to govern the country, the Socialists have begun to attack each other with harsh accusations. The Special Anti-Corruption Structure, SPAK, has become a headline for them.

Clashes within the SP and the elimination of each other have been present even before. But they have become more visible, after the recent moves of SPAK, which arrested officials of the Socialist Party, such as the mayor of Lushnja Fatos Tushe with some of his subordinates, or even the former Deputy Minister of Interior, Rovena Voda.

Fatos Tushe was expelled from the SP, and Prime Minister Edi Rama abandoned him as if he had never known him, instead of being accountable to the public, as he was the one who selected Tushe as mayor, and has already sacrificed him.

Even in the case of Rovena Voda, the latter?s husband, while debating with citizens on social networks, raised suspicions that his wife had been ?trapped? by the Socialist Party. Recently, it was the socialist MP Petro Koçi who stated openly that everyone in the Socialist Party is ready to eliminate each other.

So they know everything about each other, every crime, every corruption, and to this day they have remained silent. Koçi has targeted the mayor of Fier, Armando Subashi, even though he doesn?t mention him by name.

Koçi repeats the same statements almost every day, both on social networks and on TV shows. He calls on SPAK to go to Fier as soon as possible, because according to him crime is making the law there.

To show that he makes these statements with the approval of Prime Minister Edi Rama, Koçi says that the Socialist Party doesn?t take any step back in the fight against evil. On the other hand, the mayor Subashi has chosen to respond through social networks, by posting photos and videos from various projects that have been implemented in the Municipality of Fier.

But due to the almost daily calls of MP Koçi to SPAK, Armando Subashi seems to be unable to escape the launch of investigations into his activity.Another socialist who is expected to have the fate of Tushe and Subashi, is the mayor of Vlora, Dritan Leli. The latter has been openly attacked several times by Prime Minister Edi Rama. Rama?s first criticism of Mayor Leli came in July 2020.

In a meeting with the structures of the Socialist Party, Rama said that Leli had shown shortcomings in the management of the municipality of Vlora and in the management of public affairs. Meanwhile, in March of this year, Leli was expelled from the SP.

His dismissal came after the mayor of Vlora refused to resign to run as an MP, when he learned that he had been offered an unfavorable position on the list. Since then, Leli has been constantly at the center of attacks on Prime Minister Edi Rama. It remains to be seen who will be the next official on Prime Minister Rama?s list forto be politically eliminated and to be brought to justice/CNA.al
