Edi Rama confessed as never before, tells why he fired Saimir Tahir

I don't talk about the process that started after the Parliament vote. In no case goes into action, just like that. I'm talking about what happened until the voting point. You, the past, and the future, get them together, mix them like raki”, told Rama Chan, who disguised himself as prosecutor and was questioning Rama.

Chan asked why Rama had fired Saimir Tahiri in 2013.

I didn't fire it because of international pressure or pressure from Ilir Meta. It's true there's a man in this world who puts pressure on me. It's neither international nor its name is Ilir Meta. The ministers have resigned because of the campaign, so they have received a qualitative score of”, Rama told Tahiri further.

In the same interview with Chan as prosecutor, Rama also spoke about earlier reports with Saimir Tahiri.

“I met in the campaign in 2003, was part of the youth. I've known him from a distance, not closer. Then when I became president of the Socialist Party, he wrote me email, gave me an idea and then we met, and he started working in my party. He asked me to build a national network in the Socialist Party. In return, he offered me the will for work and passion to take things to the end. No meeting asked me for anything but faith. I say every man depends on his own decisions and a pretty boy does not take responsibility for his father. Even if his father was convicted, I don't see things connected. Saimir was eye-to-eye to Sali Berisha and many others. I didn't think Saimir Tahir could make illegal wiretapping. They can sort out the defects, but who says it's a fight? You don't know him. First, surveillance of a member of a government, even in America is illegal and considered a crime. Again, whoever conceals it, these are the ones who do not know what they say. It's a time when we eat wiretaps, we drink wiretaps, then in the morning we take out the wire droppings”, Rama declared./Periscopi
