Rama: The duration of Vetting is necessary, not something to negotiate

Albania's Prime Minister Edi Rama was asked this Friday by journalists if there are any <x0pazar” with Chief Democrat Lulzim Basha for extending Vetting's body mandate. The government head said Vetting's extension is necessary and based on close partnership with international partners.

“The extension of Vetting's body mandate is a must, which comes from a process that has shown how valuable it is for clearing the mud from the justice system and for highlighting people with integrity and this process cannot be stopped. On the other hand, I remind you that the Justice Reform is a reform based on a very close, undisputed and undisputed partnership with our strategic partners, our US strategic allies, and the EU. This is where I think the line is very clear: ”

But will the majority and opposition negotiate territorial reform for Vetting's extension?

Rama answered that, The reform in justice is not something to negotiate, but to be done, I believe that at this point it is clear that going back there is no, no standing in the stalemate there is no, and who goes against the Justice Reform versus the interests of the country, conflicts with the country's strategic alliances, conflicts with the future of the country.

These aren't related. Justice reform is not a party requirement, but a historic requirement -- it is a national requirement -- is the request of all children in this country. The rest are all issues that can be discussed, we're willing to discuss everything with the PD, I said on the first day, but one has nothing to do with the other.

The Socialist Party has gathered the morning of this Friday, the Priory. Part of this meeting has been Prime Minister Edi Rama, who eventually had a press proposal. He said it will deepen the red line established at the party congress, where employments and directors are not the property of the Socialist Party, but of the Albanian people.

“At the same time for another new process of internal transformation and opening. On the basis of some decisions, the work in the territory will take place in parallel for the analysis of central results, to verify the quality of the involvement of all SP members in the election in relation to results, and at the same time opening up the party to bring the three from society, regardless of age, and to create a new basis for moving further. What I would highlight as very important to this meeting and that thanks to you would share it with the whole public, but primarily with our entire political family in the territory, is that a red line that has been firmly established at the party congress and will deepen the following is that employment and directorates are not Socialist Party property, are the property of the Albanian people and are the function of all executive structures of the Republic of Albania based on the Constitution and laws in power. To make this clear, this is not propaganda. This is the dividing line that will guarantee us the transition to another level of self-quality and approach of the entire state administration in relation to the public. If in civilian service we have already guaranteed that the process of recruiting is processes that pass into legal channels through organised competitions. DAP, which is in my view of integrity processes and as a result of these processes many people have been able to get what is due, in the rest of the administration we have a serious problem, inherited in 30 years, but that we have to approach it firmly and decisively. This is cut out and we'll all engage, said Rama.

The government head said MPs are not employers or working offices.

I don't want to get into rumors that come out of the streets and take different forms from meetings that might have a whole different content, but what I mean is that MPs are there to serve communities and are there to serve the people. They are to convey necessary messages to people, listen to people and bring to the parliamentary group and to the ears of all members of the government people's concerns. MPs are not employers, nor jobs office, and this will be a red line. There's no question. Processing how state work is organised and how people are recruited and who assume responsibility in administration are processes regulated by laws and belong to state structures, not deputies”
