“Let us still be a common family as we were 31 years ago, not just Democrats because this square was filled with everyone not just Democrats. There were also former members of the ALP who did not like the symbol of dictatorship and had given up the cult of the individual. We must also pledge that through our attitudes and actions we will never allow the cult of the individual, neither among us, nor among Albanians.“, Declared Basha.
