The proposed amendments of the Alliance for Albanians to the Law on Citizenship also received support from the ruling party DUI. The association of the parties from the Albanian bloc on the idea of facilitated criteria for acquiring Macedonian citizenship was announced by the Speaker of Parliament, Talat Xhaferi.

According to Xhaferi, whether the changes are good or bad, he would vote “for” if the main goal is in the interest of the citizens.

I believe that the DUI parliamentary group will also support the bill. That is a total of fifteen MPs and here I take the right to speak on their behalf. None of them will say that they are against, just because the bill is initiated by the opposition coalition Alliance for Albanians-Alternativa, Xhaferi said on the  “Click Plus” show on TV21.
