Gazment Bardhi (born 6 July 1986) is an Albanian lawyer and politician who formerly served as Albania's Minister of Justice in 2017.[1] A noted legal expert in Albanian politics,[2] he played an important role in the drafting of the much debated Vetting Law, one of the key components of the country's judicial reform process.[3] On January 19, 2019 Bardhi was elected as General Secretary of the Democratic Party, defeating his opponent Dorjan Teliti by a vote of 277–44.[4] Two years later, he was elected member of the assembly on September 10, 2021 to serve in the 31st legislature, representing the Democratic Party in Elbasan.[5] He was expelled from the Democratic Party on September 10, 2023[6] and in that same month, joined Sali Berisha's rival faction.
