Prime Minister Edi Rama in an interview with Al Jazeera has said that changing the election date would actually undermine Albania's democracy.
“In the end, elections are not for politicians to decide, but for people to decide for politicians... the release of this judgment or the transformation of this very fundamental element of our democratic life, it means going in a direction that is not for our future, is a past “, Rama said.
Rama knows the problem.
I think Albania has a problem with organised crime and corruption as any country that is not yet a modern and functional state. That's why we're in this process, so we're not members of the EU, so I'm not claiming it's an injustice that we're not members today. We must prepare, we must modernise and fight corruption and fight against organised crime will have strong will, but it has to do with very strong institutions and very powerful mechanisms and operating in any direction “, he said.
When I look back five and a half years and I see where we came from, we've done significant things. But when I look forward to where we want to go and where I want to take the place, there's a lot to do”, he said.
He claims that if accession talks are successful, both Albania and the EU will benefit.
“Albania and the Western Balkans are surrounded by EU borders, so we're somehow an organ of a body that pulls out of the body, but it's not just fading, it's there. So the solution is very simple; to let this organ create problems for the entire body, or to help this organ integrate and help the body get the organ, “he said.
So it's not about enlargement, it's about completion, it's a very important piece of puzzle... It is an area... within the European Union that should not be left as an open space for other actors who may not be given enough to see the progress and prosperity”, Rama concluded. /top Channel/
