The vice-president of the DP, Gazment Bardhi, denounced this Thursday how the brother of the Prime Minister Edi Rama is connected with the cocaine group in Xibraka.

According to Bardhi, the prime minister's brother and the leaders of drug trafficking used the same car 18 times.

Olsi Rama responded to these accusations. He declares that the accusations against him are political, while he claims that they are not true.

Olsi Rama describes Bardhi as a single man who is doing a puppet show.

Full reaction:

I am neither shocked nor surprised by this re-emergence of an accusation repeated years ago by a man who has left no part of my family unmanly touched. Throwing the people of our family - from the father who passed away before Eddie took office, to the son when he was only 10 years old - into the soup of the most monstrous rumors and accusations that my brother's opponents make up that they do not know how to defeat him with votes, is a human misery that we have unfortunately accepted as a reality, but which we must change before it is too late.

Until today, I had never taken the trouble to answer the accusations against me, aware that these were and are part of the political mud against my brother and not against me. Anyone who knows me knows how clean I am and how much this mud doesn't belong to me, so I didn't want to throw it back.

To know people and even to travel with them on one occasion or on many occasions is neither something for which you have to take permission or account to anyone, nor something that makes you guilty of any fault of any kind. their can perform in his personal life.

I neither deny nor have any reason to hide that I have known one of the persons in question from a distance, certainly not the one whom this scumbag of that infamous charlatan who has attacked our family hundreds of times accuses me of , while he is now the political prosecutor for an investigated and judged case in which I have nothing to do with.

However, it is neither my job nor my nature to deal with men who, as the people say, "have nothing to do with the donkey and fall for the donkey". I have never had any business with this country since I fled in the terrible year 1997 under conditions of threat to my life and after I returned to this country where I run the "Partizani" football club.

I am proud of my brother, I vote for him with pleasure as part of the majority of Albanians for so many years and I make my part of the family mud halal because of his duty. Yes, I have never been involved with politics, or with his work problems, nor have I ever gone to his office, or have I ever asked him or his ministers for any favors. For example, I am sorry that for years the "Partizani" club has been unsuccessfully requesting from the Ministry of Defense, the return of some destroyed army barracks to a sports field, to be attached to the sports complex that the President of the club has invested himself and nothing not moving In 2025, Albania will host the U-17 European Youth Championship and Partizan's stadium has been selected as one of the stadiums for this competition, which is coming to the Balkans for the first time. I wish that the government will finally give "Partizan" those barracks that are rotting on the ground without any soldiers around them, so that our club can create a new green space for many boys and girls who play football.

As for my connections with drugs, they are as true as the connection with the truth of this poor man who accuses me. So I spent so much on this puppet theater only in the name of the dignity of my role as the head of a football club, where racism and drugs are considered enemies of man and society./ CNA
