“Preliminary results in Albania’s parliamentary election on Monday showed the ruling Socialist Party ahead, with voters supporting the country’s uphill effort to join the European Union and Prime Minister Edi Rama’s bid for a fourth term. With a quarter of the votes counted, Rama’s left-wing Socialists have 53% of the votes, followed by the opposition center-right Democratic Party-led coalition of Sali Berisha with 35%. With those numbers the Socialists will get the required 71 seats to govern alone and likely even more than the previous mandate.” (05/12/25)
