Former Albanian president attacks US ambassador for mafia structures

Former Albanian President Alfred Moisiu has commented on US Ambassador Donald Lu's statements.

In an interview by journalist, Andrea Dungli for the newspaper “ThemA” said that “basandor Lu has his data and he himself knows how he's pulled this into “, adding that Mafia structures don't exist in the country.

Ambassador Donald Lu has his own data and he knows how he concluded it.

Personally, I think we really have crimes or families involved, but the Mafia structure doesn't believe it exists in the country. If we leave the situation as it is, it can be created.

The fact is that we have criminal groups that deal with drugs, prostitution or smuggling, and relevant organs have to remove the problem naked.

However, I welcomed the US diplomat's statement after he set Albanian politics, justice and public opinion in motion.

His word should not be extinguished or skipped because we Albanians have practice to say “three days and was forgotten”.

Against crime or new vices in society requires a real fight, regardless of who is involved and who should pay back”, the former president has said.

Meanwhile, regarding the “Tahiri” issue, he says that the sale of the car to traffickers and the lack of vigilance to the spread of cannabis, which are accepted errors by the MP himself, remain unacceptable.

So far I know that he has admitted two public mistakes which in my optics are not easy. Whether the issue of “macin” be case of “the missing strategy to spread cannabis”. What responsibility there is, this should be seen next by justice organs.

We have to let the institutions work, though they don't want to be.

Unfortunately, justice is mixed with politics, so it requires reform in justice that paves the way for scanning those who will be assigned in the future the important task of doing justice”, says Moisiu. /Okéu. com/
