German MEP Michael Gahler has accused Prime Minister Rama of intervening for political reasons to ensure that Deputy Prime Minister Balluku's immunity is not lifted.
In his speech in the European Parliament, the MEP from the European People's Party group proposes that a caretaker government would be the solution to calm protesting citizens and would give hope that the upcoming elections would be free and fair.
"When I see that for political reasons the Prime Minister intervenes to ensure that the Deputy Prime Minister's immunity is not lifted, then this raises serious concerns. How can Albania be considered a vanguard country when there is such a long list of problems and concerns."
"Perhaps a caretaker government, a technical government, could be a solution to calm protesters and civil society, as well as to give citizens hope that the next elections will be free and fair, without being clouded by corruption," said Gahler.
