For the first time in the history of the country, Albania will have an Anticorruption Ministry, an innovation presented today by Prime Minister Edi Rama, revealing that Adea Pirdeni will be in charge, who until today has held the position of Deputy Minister in the Ministry of Justice.

Rama argued the need for an Anticorruption Minister saying that "the government's anticorruption policies should be better harmonized between the executive institutions, with the demands of the challenging process of negotiations with the EU for all the country's institutions, as well as with civil society and entrepreneurship itself. ".

But what Rama did not explain is why, after almost 10 years of governance, Albania needs an anti-corruption ministry, while the fight against this phenomenon should be one of the most important and continuous priorities.

Since the change of systems, Albania has "blackened" in the list of corruption, ranking near the bottom not only in the global ranking, but also among its neighbors in the region. Even in 2022 according to Transparency International, Albania showed a greater deterioration than 6 years ago.

However, three years ago, Rama decided to create the General Directorate of Anticorruption, under the Minister of Justice Ulsi Manja.

But even though it has been operating for 3 years, this directorate does not seem to have given satisfactory results, although Manja claims that it has brought more than 40 reports of corruption to the prosecutor's office.

Just two months ago, Manja declared that he was working to draft the new anti-corruption strategy which would focus on some important institutions such as taxes, customs and public procurement.

But with today's decision, Rama removed Maja from anti-corruption, leaving it in the hands of the youngest minister, Adea Pirdeni. What will happen with the fight against corruption, now in Pirden's hands, remains to be seen.
