Clashes within the coalition/ Panajot Soko resigns from the Nisma Thurje

After a series of developments within the coalition, Panajot Soko announced this Wednesday his resignation from the Nisma Thurje.

Through a post on social media, Soko announces the decision and states that this embarrassment in the eyes of the voters deserves responsibility.

"The recent events that occurred were an undeserved embarrassment in the eyes of all those who voted for us and who, with their vote, charged us with the heavy responsibility of being their voice and face in the political and public life of the country. This event, I personally believe, will be bordering on the impossible to recover from, both in the political-electoral aspect, but to some extent also in public image."

And this shame demands responsibility.

Despite the fact that I personally tried my best to resolve the issue between the parties in conflict, and tried in every way and form to bring rationality to an extremely emotionally charged environment, unfortunately I was unable to do so.

Therefore, today I want to fulfill my responsibility to the extent that it falls to me in front of all those who trusted us, so I have decided to withdraw from every function and political commitment I have in the Nisma Thurje party.

We, in just one week, successfully managed to dust off all that multi-year work to establish a new alternative, not only with new faces, but also with a new concept of doing politics, away from intrigues and banal fights for seats, away from sick egos and personal grudges that turn into causes of political force, away from the childish pettiness that determines political behavior, or the antagonistic conflict that we have usually seen politics serve in these 35 years.

This week we showed that we are not far from them.

In just one week, we undone that entire fantastic initiative, which was challenging the closed list system and competing with open lists.

Today, the mandate of the Albania Initiative coalition and the Knitting Initiative as part of the coalition was taken by a person who neither wanted it, nor worked to get it, nor had ambition, nothing. A person who, with a good will to help, agreed to enter the fictitious list and play its role as guarantor, but who today sees himself with a mandate.

And this is a red line for me!

We promised the people that we would bring to parliament what they themselves would decide with their votes, we would bring to parliament those who received the most votes from them.

We told them not to worry because we had the mechanism guaranteed.

And we shouted these loudly and relentlessly at every rally, meeting, or TV studio.

But it turned out that we lied to them! We didn't even send someone who was voted for by them, and we didn't even have the mechanism guaranteed.

And in my opinion, this is a political turning point. After this turning point, I can no longer look people in the eye. I feel ashamed when they write to me or stop me on the street. The skin on my face doesn't allow me to look at them, because it immediately turns red.

Because I personally believe that morality and honesty are two fundamental traits that have been lacking in politics to date and that we should bring.

65 thousand voters today are represented by a person they neither know nor who knows them. And why? Because we forgot ideals, causes and everything and focused on a piece of mandate.

Tom Doshi's PSD successfully applied the open list. We, who raised it as a cause and invented it as a mechanism, failed.

This is a shame!

I don't want to go on too long, as I have expressed many elements about what happened in my public appearances these days, and I wouldn't want to repeat myself as I continue to have the same stance.

Personally, I will continue to be active in public life, contributing as much as I can to public awareness about economic issues, or those of corruption and abuses, as I have done until now. Because politics, for me, has always been and only a vocation. I have never benefited from it, nor have I ever seen it as a means of profit. It has been and remains a vocation that I will continue to fulfill.

But now as an active citizen," Soko writes. /CNA
