The Twenty-third Legislature of Albania (Albanian: Legjislatura e njëzet e tre e Shqipërisë ), officially known as the III Pluralist Legislature of Albania (Albanian: Legjislatura e III Pluraliste e Shqipërisë), was the legislature of Albania following the 1992 Albanian Parliamentary election of Members of Parliament (MPs) to the Albanian Parliament. The party of the Prime Minister Aleksandër Meksi, PD, had originally obtained majority of 100 deputies. Sali Berisha was elected as President of Albania.

23rd Legislature

[edit]

The two largest political parties in Albania are the Socialist Party (PS) and the Democratic Party (PD). The former Communist party rebranded as the Socialist Party would come in second place with 38 deputies. Following is a list of political parties and alliances with representation in the Parliament by the 1992 elections. The Democrats originally held 92 seats. However, due to disruptions between members 6 out of the 92 members of the Democratic Party withdrew from the parties institutions. Led by former parliamentary group leader Neritan Ceka. He and Arben Imami would go on into created the Democratic Alliance Party.[1] Which would consist of 6 Democrat dissidents. While not just Neritan Ceka. Petrit Kalakulla would ultimately be expelled from the Democratic party where he would go on and create the Right Democratic Party. His explosion was due to the claims he had made during the parliamentary session that it would be more ennobling for him if someone called him a "fascist" than a "communist".[2] In 1994 The Republican party and the Social Democratic party would pull out of the Democratic parties coalition.[3] Some of the Social Democratic party members would go on to create the Liberal Democratic Union which was originally known as Social Democratic Union Party. Which was led by Teodor Laço.[4]
