In Albania, the impeachment procedure has been launched by the president

In Albania, the process of removal from the post of President Ilira Meta officially began, TASS reports with reference to the Albanian Telegraph Agency (Ata).

The requirement of the resignation of the current head of state has already signed 55 deputies, which by 20 votes exceeds the number of signatures necessary for the start of the procedure. The reason for the launch of the impeachment procedure was the president’s decision to transfer the municipal elections appointed on June 30, which, according to the coordinator of the Albania of Albania Taulant Ball, is a gross violation of the Republic of the Republic.
