PD municipal councilor, Ilir Alimehmeti
Erion Veliaj has refused the meeting of the Municipal Council, which was urgently requested by the opposition municipal councilors.
This was announced by the municipal councilor of the Democratic Party, Ilir Alimehmeti, who came out in a statement to the media, where he announced that the two demands of the opposition, for an urgent meeting of the Municipal Council, as well as for an external audit of the Municipality, have been rejected. .
Alimehmeti called today's meeting an artifice on the part of left-wing councilors, and accused Erion Veliajn of hiding behind his finger, while we have directors arrested for the robbery of public funds with the "5D" affair.
"We invited the Municipal Council since the first week, when the directors of the Municipality of Tirana were arrested. We asked for an urgent meeting, and not only did they not join our decision, but they found the situation that we did not have enough signatures.
But today 1/3 of the municipal councilors gathered. The emergency in Tirana Municipality is not the theft of millions of euros by the directors of Veliaj.
All work in this Municipality is blocked. The directors are either in prison or under house arrest. It doesn't seem like that's the function of the City Council. The leadership of the left councilors found artifice.
The political position of the SP was that it is not their issue.
But we will continue to demand the special session. We don't back down.
The request has been made public. It was requested this morning. An urgent meeting was requested as well as an external audit. Here are the 21 firms of the municipal councilors," concluded Alimehmeti. " / CNA
