He demanded the annulment of the agreement/ the Constitutional Court

The Constitutional Court has today "rejected" the opposition's request for the cancellation of the agreement with the Arab Emirates for the Port of Durrës.

A group of 37 MPs from the Democratic Party and other opposition parties asked the Constitutional Court in November 2022 to annul the agreement.

The deputies claim that it does not agree with the Constitution and international agreements. But today, the Constitutional Court rejected the opposition's claims.
