Gashi Says He’s not Leaving as VLEN MP

Parliament Speaker Afrim Gashi has denied media reports that he will leave VLEN as an MP.

“As an MP, I remain loyal to the voters that elected me in the 8 May 2024 elections. So, Afrim Gashi is an MP of Alternative in the frames of the VLEN coalition. As Parliament Speaker, I try to be equal to all MPs and Parliamentary Groups because the constitutional responsibility and office I hold imposes that on me”, he said.

Gashi had been the leader of Alternative but resigned in order to be able to become the Speaker.
