Berisha "non grata" in the US/ LaCivita: The Biden administration was

The DP campaign manager, Chris LaCivita, invited to the show "Opinion" by Blendi Fevziu, also focused on the declaration of Sali Berisha as "non grata" by the United States of America. LaCivita said that this "non grata" was made by a corrupt government and has no legitimacy at all.

When asked whether this decision against Berisha will be lifted, LaCivita responded by saying that it will be resolved over time.

Fevziu : There is a problem with this story. Mr. Berisha, the former Prime Minister and former President of Albania, was declared persona non grata by former Secretary of State Antony Blinken in 2021. You are well aware of the Tweet that the former Secretary of State made and the story. Can you work with someone who has been declared persona non grata by the United States administration?

LaCivita : First of all, there's the former administration, Antony Blinken.

Fevziu: It was the United States administration at the time.

LaCivita: They have been corrupt to the point of...

Fevziu: Were they corrupt?

LaCivita: They were as corrupt as Edi Rama's government. In my eyes and in my opinion, and these are not issues that I don't discuss in the United States because that's not my role, but from my point of view and one of the reasons I'm here is because that persona non grata declaration was so corrupt that it has no legitimacy at all, at least in my eyes.

Fevziu: If I can ask you a little more. Sali Berisha was a friend of the United States of America. When he was the only President who made two visits to the White House in 1991 and 1995.

LaCivita : Doctor Berisha. Yes.

Fevziu : Yes, as Prime Minister. There were very good meetings at the White House with the Vice President. Why did the United States administration, the Biden administration, make this decision?

LaCivita: Ps did the Biden administration cover up the fact that Joe Biden was mentally ill for 4 years and was unfit to be president? Why did the Biden administration decide that men can have children? Why did the Biden administration decide… I could go on and on about it for days. The Biden administration made so many mistakes on so many different levels. This was just another mistake.

Fevziu: According to you, this is a corrupt decision, made by a corrupt administration, why doesn't the current administration take action against it?

LaCivita: I do not speak on behalf of the United States government, I cannot speak on behalf of the State Department, I am here to make sure that the conservatives and the Democratic Party will have the opportunity to challenge Edi Rama's 12 years of failure and these things will be resolved over time.

Fevziu: A few months ago you said that Mr. Berisha is a great friend of the United States. Do you still think the same?

LaCivita: Absolutely! Absolutely!
