Rama explodes after yesterday's protest: Aren't you ashamed that you
Edi Rama

Prime Minister Edi Rama has reacted to yesterday's protest in front of the Parliament.

Full post:

So, for your particular breed of lazy democrats, preventing parliamentarians from entering the opening session of Parliament is "dissent"?

It may seem that way from the comfort of your keyboard. But not to your Albanian colleagues, from right to left, who were forced to face a series of verbal abuse and physical violence, with eggs and even rocks thrown at them, just to get to their workplace.

Aren't you ashamed to support such disgusting behavior and sell it as democratic dissent? Apparently not.

By the way, look at how an esteemed member of Parliament, a respected academic and a widely known advocate for women's rights, is abused by your models of "dissent" while simply trying to get to her workplace.

And that wasn't even the worst of what your Albanian colleagues had to endure yesterday.

Do you have anything to say about this particular form of "dissent" from your lofty democratic pulpit? Or does your concern for democracy end where the unpleasant facts begin?

And please, give Albania a break and don't drag Albania into this. Albania is a truly free country and much more democratic than your narrow-minded politics. It doesn't deserve to be chewing gum in the mouths of mediocre people who trade facts for free political engagement.
