A day after the publication of the lists of candidates for MPs, Prime Minister Rama explained on Sy m`sy the decision to leave some of the old MPs on the open lists.
Rama said that the lists have been carefully constructed since last year, to open the party.
"Our national team is something completely different, built with great care since last September. When we have established the political leaders of the regions, they begin and do all the research work of the potential territory and collaborate with communities, actors and factors to identify the most suitable and possible candidacies.
Not everyone who was contacted agreed to enter politics. We relaunched the platform "Deputy We Want", we conducted the first test in 2021, it was the first time, we had about 500 or so applications. Then we addressed all those who applied with a second selection process, and from this selection, about 250 individuals emerged who were given the opportunity to enter the field and work in the field. The platform has brought us a great innovation.
"We have used closed lists to open the party, to make the opening brutal, in the sense that if the internal capacities in the territory from the point of view of access to organizations are such that they hinder the opening, we must impose it at a key moment, giving opportunities to young men and women who otherwise would not be able to enter," said Rama.
