The leader of the Albanian opposition Democratic Party Lulzim Basha resigned on Monday following months of stalemate between him and former head of party over leadership.Former president and prime minister Sali Berisha has been challenging Basha for months since he was thrown out of the party last year after Washington banned him from entering the United States over alleged corruption. Berisha denies any wrongdoing.
"The democrats are tired of the internal conflict, the campaigns and the denigrating language, from which the Democratic Party and Albania are harmed and only (Prime Minister) Edi Rama's circle is benefiting," Basha said in his address announcing the resignation.
