Sali Berisha

This afternoon, former Prime Minister Sali Berisha discussed the draft budget of 2024, which was voted in principle in parliament for 4 minutes amid tensions and chaos caused by opposition MPs.

During the discussions, Berisha has accused judges and prosecutors, calling them mercenaries and that they have taken power as State Security used to.

" You mentioned your sectors very well and I will not stop to quote them anymore, but I am here to you to stop on another aspect of ours as intellectuals.

We are craftsmen, professionals and everyone loves their profession.

But today more than ever, I must remind you and every Albanian intellectual to never forget that our true essence is advocacy for the public interest.

Whatever profession we have and in whatever position we find ourselves. We must bear in mind that our role, that our essence is the protection of the public interest.

I will go to Mr. Luma, there is no freedom, he said.

If we look today, the biggest problem of Albanian society lies precisely in this tragic fact.

I invite every intellectual to stop at the scenes taking place in the parliament.

A group of opposition MPs are in civil disobedience because the one who rules this country today, in the most incriminating way, has deprived them of their basic constitutional rights.

But when deputies are denied basic constitutional rights, citizens forget that they have real rights. Let the intellectuals forget that there is intellectual freedom, that there is academic freedom, that there is freedom as such.

You follow the charts. What are the deputies looking for there? Never, since the overthrow of the dictatorship, have there been such demands. They ask to respect their constitutional right to set up parliamentary investigative commissions, in your name. In the name of transparency for citizens.

Today, the politically persecuted in this budget have a total of 11 million euros. Edi Rama spent 22 million euros with his 'Ismail' in two years. Therefore, he never agrees to be investigated.

We can't go any further.

Today, absolutely the same as in the dictatorship, that the dictatorship is not that there were no laws, there was a parliament, there were parliamentary committees, there was a president of the parliament. But the dictatorship said that Albania is a dictatorship of the proletariat and it was the First Secretary who is all-powerful. And our Constitution says that we are a parliamentary republic.

And in this country and at this time, mercenary judges and prosecutors take power from the parliament. They take power from the parliament.

Imagine what the situation is. The constitution defines the attributes of the parliament, while the mercenaries in the prosecutor's office and the courts, just like in the past in the State Security investigation offices, decide what the parliament should decide.

I tell you this to understand what a dramatic situation Albania is in today," Berisha said./ CNA
