Prime Minister Edi Rama reacted to the debate on the Vjosa-Narta protected area, stating that the European Parliament has rejected the amendment that, according to him, was related to development in the area and was included in the Resolution on Albania.

Rama said that the overwhelming majority of MEPs separated the digital storm of disinformation from the reality of the Vjosa-Narta project, emphasizing that the protected area has no connection to the planned development.

Rama states that the positive assessments of European institutions for Albania and the support for accelerating the European Union membership process show that the country is moving in the right direction.

Rama also criticized opponents of the project, claiming that the protest launched in the name of protecting flamingos is turning into a political battle for power.

Rama underlines that the flamingos and the Vjosa-Narta protected area will be protected, while the development in Zvërnec will be carried out on the basis of an environmental impact assessment, in accordance with European Union standards.

"Here the EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT separated the "stalk" of the digital storm of disinformation from the "sugar" of the Vjosa - Narta protected area, which has no connection to the development that the MEPs, ousted by an overwhelming majority, blindly introduced as an amendment to the Resolution on Albania.

Now either all of Europe, which through its Parliament highly values ??Albania and encourages our early membership in the EU, has gone crazy and corrupt, or there is something wrong with those who started the protest of recent weeks in defense of flamenco and are portraying it as a struggle for power in the name of flamenco!

In any case, the flamingos will be protected, Vjosa-Narta will be protected, Zvërnec will be developed based on an Environmental Impact Assessment according to European Union standards, and we will continue to elevate Albania to the top where the home of the United Europe is located," Rama writes./ CNA
