Tickets for the NBA game/ Rama: Invitation from a friend unrelated to Albania
Prime Minister Edi Rama

A week ago, Prime Minister Edi Rama was in the USA, where he held a meeting with Albanians in New York.

During this visit, Rama also attended the NBA game, for which the opposition raised questions about where he got the money for the ticket to the stadium.

He stated that the ticket was reserved by people who have been following the matches for years and for him it was an invitation from a friend.

"That ticket is neither bought nor sold. They are places reserved by people who have taken them for years.

It doesn't matter who it was? My friends... And who wanted to give me this pleasure. In America, this is the same as inviting someone to a restaurant," said the head of government.

Asked if the friend who gave it to him has interests in Albania, the prime minister denied it.

"Not at all. Would he bribe me with the ticket? These are useless conversations, Fevzi now. I neither received a ticket, nor saw a ticket, nor did I make anyone buy a ticket, nor did anyone buy a ticket. In the USA reserved seats are in all kinds of sports. They are booked by people not just for themselves to go every time, but also to invite friends as they are invited to a restaurant, as they are invited to a coffee shop. Since you opened the issue of gifts, I am telling you. I am the first prime minister in the history of this country. Now I am not including the time of communism because then there were no such that every gift with the gifts that come to me a delegation comes and leaves gifts. Gifts on certain occasions are of great value. I created a museum in the prime minister's office with the gifts I received and every gift that comes to me is registered as the property of the Republic of Albania. And only in valuable watches that are registered as the property of the Republic of Albania, very large amounts are involved. So that we can be very clear", emphasized Rama./ CNA
