"Agron Neza is very close to Azem Hajdari", Rama: I have met
Edi Rama

Prime Minister Edi Rama has admitted that he met several times the former senior FBI official in New York, Charles McGonigal, who was arrested and, among other things, is accused of having received hundreds of thousands of euros from a security employee in Albania. in 2017.

However, Rama denied that he or the Albanian government has anything to do with the US investigations.

After the meeting with the leaders of the Districts, Rama in a statement to the journalists stated that Agron Neza was close friends with Azem Hajdari and tribe with Besnik Mustafaj.

"I believe that people should normally be used to the fact that here the opinion is divided into a part that believes with will or not what it will believe and another part that listens and reflects on the facts. This is a matter investigated by the American judiciary, which does not issue decisions on murder without a perpetrator or on negligent homicide when the murders are committed from the windows of state institutions and does not bother anyone. In this particular case, there is zero accusation and zero connection between the issue being discussed and me or the government of Albania.

These are derivatives of misreading. The mention of the name as part of a meeting or another meeting has nothing to do with the conclusions drawn by the investigation in the USA. Conclusions have been drawn and it has nothing to do with what you say. I met him and this is not a reason to draw new conclusions by looking at Tirana through the binoculars of the noise policy, for the sake of noise. In the conditions that we are facing the new fact for January 21 and the request of SP to open the investigation in SPAK. Anyone who understands understands.

The investigations have been completed, there is a person accused of non-declaration and conflict of interest in relation to his Albanian-American friend from Tropoja, whom I have known and I have no relationship with. I spoke about Mr. Agron, who I repeat comes from the Democratic Movement, very close to the late Azem Hajdari, tribe with Besnik Mustafajn, honorable people without question, whom I have never met before and with whom I have never exchanged no papers, no interest, nothing, but I have only met him in the presence of the senior FBI official. Regarding the other person, he was the Deputy Minister of Energy in the coalition of 2013 and then for some time he worked with me without pay. Why does the opposition use it, I'm used to it,Rama said.
