In his communication with citizens on social media, Sali Berisha reaffirmed his support for the civic protest, and attacked Prime Minister Edi Rama for his stance towards former KLA fighters. He also spoke about the declaration of a protester as non grata, after she had a photo with the former Iranian president, whom Berisha said Edi Rama had also met.
"My call is for every democrat, for every Albanian, wherever they are, in Albania or in the diaspora, to support the protest of young Albanians as the most beautiful hope for Albanians, Albania and the future of the country. Rama returned to his genius. Every day and every night he passes from the digital world to the dark world of the Albanian secret police ," said Berisha.
"Declaring a lady non grata just because she had a photo with Ahmadinejad. Let me tell you something. I was prime minister when partner services informed me that Edi Rama had gone to Tehran and met with Ahmadinejad, while Erion Veliaj had made that trip several times. From the verifications of the competent bodies it resulted that, at least on one occasion, Rama had participated in a meeting of the Socialist International, held in Tehran. Tahir Sinani, as you know, commanded several brigades on the Pashtrik front, one of the hottest fronts of the war in Kosovo. Even those documents were issued by Edi Rama and they were released only on his order from the State Archives. This is a treacherous state, a state that uses Vučić's standard against freedom fighters."
Asked when he will travel to the United States of America, Berisha said that he will not wait to become prime minister to do so.
Question: "When will you go to the United States of America, for Rama's sake?"
Sali Berisha: " Thank you. I'm not saying that I will go only after we win the elections, as prime minister. I will go even before, of course at the appropriate moment. I am in the opposition and I can go to participate in a conference."
