SUMMARY ORDER

Petitioner Edioli Xhuti, a native and citizen of Albania, seeks review of a February 24, 2016, decision of the BIA, affirming an August 27, 2014, decision of an Immigration Judge (“IJ”) denying Xhuti’s motion to reopen. In re Edioli Xhuti, No. A095 378 310 (B.I.A. Feb. 24, 2016), aff'g No. A095 378 310 (Immig. Ct. N.Y. City Aug. 27, 2014). We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts and procedural history in this case.

We have reviewed both the IJ’s and the BIA’s decisions “for the sake of completeness.” Wan gchuck v. Dep’t of Homeland Sec., 448 F.3d 524, 528 (2d Cir. 2006). The applicable standards of review are well established. See Jian Hui Shao v. Mukasey, 546 F.3d 138, 168-69 (2d Cir. 2008).

In his motion to reopen, Xhuti argued that worsened conditions in Albania for Democratic Party members, such as himself, should excuse the untimely filing of his motion and the untimeliness of the asylum application he would file in reopened proceedings. It is undisputed that Xhuti’s 2014 motion to reopen was untimely filed more than two years after the IJ’s 2012 order of removal (and grant of withholding of removal) became final. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C)(i); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.23(b)(1). However, the time limitation for filing a motion to reopen does not apply if the motion “is based on changed country conditions arising in the country of nationality or the country to which removal has been ordered, if such evidence is material and was not available and would not have been discovered or presented at the previous proceeding.” 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C)(ii); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.23(b)(4)(i).

The agency reasonably concluded that Dr. Bernd Fischer’s declaration did not *43 demonstrate a material change in Albania for Democratic Party members. In re S-Y-G-, 24 I. & N. Dec. 247, 253 (BIA 2007). Dr. Fischer’s 2013 declaration discusses the continuation of political unrest, violence, and corruption similar to that described in his 2011 affidavit, which was in the record of Xhuti’s underlying proceedings. Although the Socialist Party won a majority of parliamentary seats in Albania in 2013, that alone does not demonstrate that Xhuti is at greater risk of harm, particularly given that Dr. Fischer’s statements indicate that political unrest and violence are caused by both political parties and appear to continue no matter which party controls the parliament.

Accordingly, because the agency reasonably found that Xhuti did not demonstrate a material change in country conditions in Albania, it did not abuse its discretion in denying his motion to reopen as untimely. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C); see also In re S-Y-G-, 24 I. & N. Dec. at 253, 257.

For the foregoing reasons, the petition for review is DENIED. As we have completed our review, any stay of removal that the Court previously granted in this petition is VACATED, and any pending motion for a stay of removal in this petition is DISMISSED as moot. Any pending request for oral argument in this petition is DENIED in accordance with Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 34(a)(2), and Second Circuit Local Rule 34.1(b).
