The leader of the Freedom party, Ilir Meta, has reacted for the first time, after the File Authority discovered and accused him of being part of the state security during the dictatorship.
He said that this is a manipulation on purpose, organized by Edi Rama to divert attention from the affair of the incinerators. The former President said that he has been a member of parliament since 1992 and has passed the filters three times where he was found to be clean.
" Now how can I avoid an answer, despite the fact that there are no Albanians on this earth who do not understand that with this act, suicide, because Authority before legal is moral, that you have been entrusted with a duty to deal with the past with care and people who have been affected and implicated voluntarily and who seek to escape the filter by becoming a danger to society and at the same time to comfort the victims of that period who had those consequences. This is just unfortunate for the Authority of file manipulation and criminalization.
They know what is there and what is not there and how true it is in those files they say. With an anonymous, electronic e-mail that when it becomes public you will all be scolded, it was discovered that we were an IM and the media that drop "bombshells" that we will preserve a little more ethics. It was discovered that after 30 or so years, IM was this man who in 1992 became a member of parliament and submitted to all the commissions, from that of Mr. Berisha that did not make it past half of the party that I was in and until after the time of Fatos Nanos and of this authority now. Why is this done? What did it cost this Authority to call this IM, who is not IM but Ilir Rexhep Metaj, to call him, I am neither president nor deputy.
Why did you want a special law now? Does anyone believe this? And of course the parliament, Lindita e Rama, was set up, which is used for his personal needs as if it were an emergency to divert attention from the incinerators. How many IM have been in the Faculty of Economics, the class I was in, and who was, if they were and they know very well. At that time, I was only secretary of the Youth of the Faculty of Youth, I was elected because I had all 10 and I was a leader, I organized and this was my main merit. I know 40-50 Ilir Metajs and one of them is a deputy, there were two Ilir Metajs in my class.
The other one was also a correct person. The authority to tamper with the files has a huge responsibility, as it destroys public trust and creates anxiety among many people who have done wrong in the past and whose names can now come out, who have children and started families. I assure everyone that I am here after 30 years in politics, not that he has not made mistakes, but that he has been and is clean and I will continue for another 30-40 years, he said.
