The lawmakers accused Mr. Meta, of inciting instability and violence, taking sides with political opposition ahead of the nation’s election.

Edi Rama the country’s Prime Minister who spoke before the impeachment said Mr. Meta “has betrayed the mission of the president of … Albania.”

Mr. Meta was impeached after the 104 lawmakers voted for his impeachment against 7 other members who voted for him to remain as president with three others maintaining a neutral stand.

The final approval will come from Albania’s Constitutional Court within three months.

Socialist lawmakers had in April asked the investigative committee to impeach Mr. Meta for failing to guaranty national unity.

Since assuming the office of president in 2017 with the support of the ruling Socialists, Mr. Meta has opposed their agenda, blocking the nominations of ministers and vetoing legislation.

However, the removed President faulted the investigation and impeachment attempt, with claims that the outgoing parliament lacks the constitutional right to conduct such investigation as they are currently in a post-election transition period.
