STRASBOURG, Nov 22 – Albania’s new electoral code was praised by international agencies operating in the country, including the OSCE and the Council of Europe.
Albania’s political parties should “commit themselves to maintaining the current momentum for political change” ahead of the major challenge of the coming elections, according to PACE’s two monitoring co-rapporteurs on Albania.
Jaakko Laakso (Finland, UEL) and David Wilshire (United Kingdom, EDG) also said Albania should implement adopted legislation more promptly and effectively, and criticized a lack of cooperation with some Council of Europe bodies.
