From Fatos Nano to Kastriot Islami and Elisa Spiropali, the history of exclusions from the Socialist Party
2026-11-15 12:58:00 / POLITIKË
Over the years, decisions to leave the parliamentary group or leadership structures have been made for various reasons, mainly against the backdrop of political clashes and disagreements within the left.
One of the first sensational cases was that of Fatos Nano in 2007. At that time, the leader of the Socialist Party, Edi Rama, told journalists that Nano was no longer part of the Socialist Party's political project.
Also in 2007, six Socialist MPs, Paulin Sterkaj, Durim Lamaj, Durim Hushi, Bukurosh Stafa, Taulant Dedja and Hamit Kosta, were expelled from the Socialist Party Parliamentary Group, after their vote in favor of Bamir Topi for President of the Republic.
Four years later, in 2011, it was Kastriot Islam's turn to be expelled from the Socialist Parliamentary Group. The decision came after he failed to respect the party's political stance. This period was accompanied by strong clashes within the Socialist Party and with the Movement for a Different Mind, which included Ben Blushi, Arben Malaj, Andis Harasani and Marko Bello.
In 2015, Tom Doshi was expelled from the Socialist Party Parliamentary Group. In 2016, Koço Kokëdhima was dismissed from leadership positions in the SP.
In 2017, another important name of the Socialists, former Interior Minister Saimir Tahiri, was expelled from the Socialist Party's Parliamentary Group and forums.
The list of dismissals and expulsions continued in the following years. In 2021, Dritan Leli was expelled from the Socialist Party, while yesterday the decision to expel Elisa Spiropali and Plarent Ndreca from party forums was also taken, a decision communicated by the Secretary General of the Socialist Party, Blendi Klosi, after yesterday's Assembly.
