Deputy Prime Minister Berisha says São has now met with Minister Pacolli for a year's work in a ministry.

At Express Interview at KTV, speaking of remarks by the US Embassy not to appoint people with a criminal record in high official positions, Berisha has said he cannot discuss it with his boss because he has met for a year.

I've discussed it with my colleagues, the ones I can discuss, the ones I reach. I didn't discuss it with the minister. I haven't met her in a year. He dictates reports, not deputy minister. Questions should be taken care of. I am a career diplomat and I use all my contacts and my connections and my own secondary duty as diplomatic adviser to the prime minister that gives me room to act”, he said.

Berisha has said, however, that there are obstacles to his work.
