The Albanian List (Albanian: Lista Shqiptare, LSh; Montenegrin: Албанска листа, Albanska lista, AL) was a conservative Albanian minority political alliance in Montenegro, composed of the Albanian Alternative of Nik Gjeloshaj and FORCA of Nazif Cungu. The alliance was represented with one seat in the national parliament, being MP Genci Nimanbegu, member of FORCA. The coalition was dissolved in March of 2023 when Nimanbegu refused to step up from the MP seat, as agreed previously, in order to be replaced by a representative of Albanian Alternative.[1]
History
[edit]The alliance was formed by New Democratic Force (Forca) and the Albanian Alternative (AA), and is also supported by the minor Albanian Coalition "Perspective" and the Democratic League of Albanians (DSA), prior to the 2020 parliamentary election.[2] The Forca and AA, jointly with Democratic Union of Albanians (DUA), had contested the 2016 parliamentary elections as part of "Albanians Decisively", winning a single seat.[3] Incumbent Mayor of Tuzi, Nik Gjeloshaj (AA), headed the coalition electoral list at the parliamentary election in August 2020.[4] The coalition received 1.58% of the vote, winning one seat.
