"Lapaj has no connection with the homeland?!"/ Elena Kocaqi ignores

Elena Kocaqi, who is the president of the Albanian National Alliance and is running in the elections, was invited to the show "The Unexposed" on MCN TV, where she stated that she has rejected Adriatik Lapaj's coalition. She said that she does not resemble Lapaj in terms of patriotism, while stating that she did not agree with the way her family members chose to run. 

Ylli Rakipi : Did the DP invite you to a coalition?

Elena Kocaqi : Far and away yes, but I will not enter that coalition, neither with the DP nor with the SP, we want a new spirit, with new people. We do not deal, we do not bring in incriminated people, but educated people. We do not make alliances with them.

Ylli Rakipi : What if you have the power to form the government?

Elena Kocaqi : Not with Rama or Berisha. We are not for keeping Rama and Berisha in power, but for a new future for Albania. Rama-Berisha are 35 years old. What about these young boys and girls of Albania? Why are Berisha and Rama stuck? They are looking for a new spirit in politics.

Enton Abilekaj : Since we are here, have you had offers from new parties? 

Ylli Rakipi: Do you think any of these parties are correct? This Lapaj seems closer to you, he shouts a lot for the homeland. Do you think he is sincere or does he have populism? 

Elena Kocaqi: It has nothing to do with the homeland. You don't need a homeland for votes. We didn't join them.

Ylli Rakipi: One of these Nisma Thurje people declared that you would be...?

Elena Kocaqi: They wanted to, we have a good relationship, but it's a different matter. When you're a new party, you have to prove yourself and consolidate yourself. They did a stunt, they wanted to burn the closed list, I don't like that you're going to include your father and mother. Well, bravo to them, but we're a younger organization and it's harder for us to do this. For this and other reasons. 

Ylli Rakipi: Did you negotiate?

Elena Kocaqi : Agron Shehaj and Qori did not want any alliance. The only ones were Lapaj and Alibeaj, Shehi. We did not see it as reasonable.

Enton Abilekaj: It's just harder for you.

Elena Kocaqi : The goal is to bring change.

Ylli Rakipi: The new parties together could get more votes. You could go with Lapaj. Why don't you like it?

Elena Kocaqi: The technique used in the elections was problematic.
