How could the opposition defeat Edi Rama?

Recent developments in the Democratic Party are the clearest indication that it is a party that has lost confidence that it can win a race against Edi Rama and the Socialist Party.

Despite its rhetoric, victory is not a matter of numbers, but of political quality, it has nothing to do with the wild rhetoric of speeches, with insults and accusations, but, first of all, it needs credibility, morality and alternatives, which, apparently, it lacks.

Albanians live in Albania every day, they know its problems, they are aware of the corruption that exists, but they do not have faith and hope that those who accuse the government of these things are different from them, and therefore they do not stand up to react or make a change.

In a sense, the country is faced with a paradox where the opposition cannot even make a difference, just as it has blocked the way for other formations to do so.

Therefore, for the opposition, and especially the DP, to have the opportunity for a dignified competition and to realize the political rotation, it must first fix itself. To escape from the hostage-taking, from the shadows of corruption and from the leadership that holds it hostage. To create a new political physiognomy with unconsumed people, with an honest and realistic discourse, that is not fed by hatred and paranoia, but by ideas and truth.

If the opposition is to defeat Rama, it must first defeat itself: to separate the honest from the corrupt, the progressives from the regressives, and the Europeans from those who see politics as a commodity.

Because as long as Sali Berisha is the problem and not the solution, as long as the opposition revolves around worn-out figures, Rama has nothing to fear. He remains in power not only by his strength, but especially by the state of his opponents, who have not the slightest desire to change, and consequently not to win.
