Parliamentary elections were held in Albania on 25 June.[1] They had initially been scheduled for 18 June, but after a possible boycott was announced by opposition parties during a political crisis that lasted three months, an agreement was reached between all parties on 18 May to change the date.[2] The Socialist Party won 74 of the 140 seats.[3]
