Today, Sali Berisha mentioned the name of Vali Bizhga in a press conference, as Edi Rama's favorite candidate for president.
"If I ask you, which of the secret envelopes came out the most talked about name? Have you heard any names? I tell you. You have not heard. According to Edi Rama's statistics, 2/3 of the secrets went to Vali Bizhga. What else can you expect, at a time when her name does not appear on any envelopes. This is called an election. That is why I call it elections like Cosa-Nostra ", said Berisha.
A few years ago, her name was mentioned in the wiretaps published by 'Voice of America', of the file of Arben Çuko, who according to VOA had intervened with the former director of prisons for appointments without competition in the administration.
The publication of materials from the file of the Prosecution of Serious Crimes brought the harsh reaction of Rama, who called 'Voice of America' part of the Albanian media cauldron. This harsh reaction of the Prime Minister to the American media is thought to be related to the mention of Vali Bizhga's name in the article.
Although a low-profile public figure, Bizhga plays a crucial role in Rama's political life. This fact was accepted by him when he took over the government, announcing that he would work side by side with Vali Bizhga in the Prime Minister, as he had done in the municipality of Tirana.
Monika Kryemadhi calls Vali Bizhga "the real prime minister":
In the show 'Free Zone', Kryemadhi said: " Vali Bizhga is the real Prime Minister, I think. He is the man who does all things. Bizhga I think is the person who sacrifices the most from personal life in the service of Rama. She was the deputy mayor of Tirana in Rama's time. Outwardly she gives the impression of being a fragile woman, but she is a strong woman and withstands all the workflow. He is one of the people who manages Rama's entire agenda. "Agngjëll Agaçi and Bizhga extend Rama's life in government" , said Kryemadhi.
"Vali Bizhga, in the costume of a president who fits Edi Rama", writes the Albanian newspaper. Mentioning Vali Bizhga's name as a presidential candidate by Sali Berisha could be part of the political game. It is still early to say who is Edi Rama's favorite.
But Bizhga meets all the conditions set by the Socialists for the post of head of state. She is a woman, she is not part of the parliamentary group and she should behave like the opposite of Ilir Meta.
It is understood that if so far we have had a president who has held diametrically opposed positions with the prime minister on many issues, in the next 5 years, in the presidency should be a notary, who has given evidence that he obeys Edi Rama. Who better than his subordinate in the prime minister and the municipality, can do this?
