Rama: Religious harmony, an important security system for the peace of a country

Prime Minister Edi Rama has described religious coexistence as a very important security system for peace in our country.

In an interview with Top Channel where he spoke about his book "At the Table of the Moon", Rama said that this is also appreciated by internationals who are increasingly interested in knowing about religious harmony in Albania.  

"I mention it and perhaps I should mention it even more, because I consider it at the same time a very important security system for peace, for the undisturbed continuity of our people, because there are countless cases when the religious diversity of a community has created extraordinary wounds, has brought death, has brought destruction, has brought incurable unrest. And it is like something extraordinary that when you have it, you don't appreciate it. There are many extraordinary things that we have and don't appreciate. But we must never forget and I never forget, what hell Albania would be like if this brotherhood, or this religious harmony as Pope Francis called it when he came here, were to disintegrate and in its place there were disagreements, conflicts, wars, it would be a horror. Meanwhile, foreigners, I believe that now they have perceived and have made for themselves a view of Albania that is much closer to reality, than the view they had until not many years ago, when they formally respected us, when they neither believed us nor valued us. And in the meantime, they still need to hear more about brotherhood, about religious harmony, about what we have done for the Jews, about how much we are committed to the West, about how much we have removed as a nation and as a country from the past, from dictatorship, about how we have learned everything to the extreme due to the fact that we were on the wrong side of history, when we isolated ourselves and aligned ourselves with the dictators, with the bloodthirsty people of the world. These are things that we must help them see and know about us", Rama said.

Among other things, the Prime Minister said that he does not believe that people's faith in God has decreased because of the internet.

"I do not believe that people today believe less than before the advent of the internet, and there are even studies that say that the increase in the powers of science to explain phenomena has not reduced people's faith in God. On the contrary, there are more people today who believe in God than there were before this explosion. But perhaps some no longer believe in the path of the Church, the Mosque, the Synagogue, that is, in temples, in institutions. Something that is also related to a general crisis of institutions in general, of the state in general, especially in countries where there is freedom, there is democracy. Meanwhile, there are many people who believe in faith in the sense that they believe that believing is not something wrong ," said Rama. /CNA
