“Citizens do not want Berisha at the protest” – Activist Qiraxhi debates the DP vice-chairman: The old guard has blocked your path

Activist Migen Qiraxhi of Qëndresa Qytetare debated on the programme “Off the Record” on A2CNN with the Democratic vice-chairman Nikola Kedhi regarding the DP’s leadership and the citizens’ protest.

Qiraxhi stressed that the citizens at the protest want neither Rama nor Berisha. Meanwhile Kedhi pointed out that the protest consists of different groups.

Addressing the Democratic vice-chairman, Qiraxhi said the old guard had blocked the path of the young in the DP, a claim Kedhi rejected.

The studio debate:

Qiraxhi: You say the DP has been at the protest and has supported the protest.

Kedhi: Of course it has supported the protest.

Qiraxhi: Where does your call for a structural organisation of a political party stand now? Because the Democrats have not been excluded from the citizens’ protest. The leadership of the SP and the DP has been targeted. Citizens have identified two people who have blocked all their resources.

Kedhi: There are different groups there.

Qiraxhi: That is what Rama says too — there are some good citizens who do not want my resignation.

Kedhi: I regret that even today here we are dealing with names. Albania is leaving here, and we are dealing with names!

Qiraxhi: The names are responsible. The old guard has blocked your path.

Kedhi: Who has blocked my path?! The DP leadership today consists of 16 young people.
