Journalists "shove" incinerators in Rama's eyes/ The Prime

The incinerators have taken Prime Minister Edi Rama out of control.

Journalists Neritan Sejamini and Fatjona Mejdini on the show Opinion revealed that hundreds of millions of euros have been paid from Albanian taxes for incinerators that do not exist.

On the other hand, Rama called the facts about incinerators half-truths and folklore.

The Prime Minister addressed the host of the Opinion show Blendi Fevziu as journalists grilled him about the affair of the century with the words: What did you give these people to drink, Fevzi?

Debate on the Opinion show.

Rama: The project is the right one. The plan is legitimate. The reason why there have been individuals within the process who have benefited from it is partly to do with corruption.

Sejamini: Not a single brick has been laid and the government has paid 140 million euros. Why?

Rama: It's a big lie.

Sejamini: How much did the government pay? 70? Why were they paid without laying a single brick? It's been four years since a single brick was laid?

Rama: This is folklore.

Sejamini: I can call it corruption.

Rama: This is a folklore analysis based on some half-truths.

Sejamini: When I told half-truths

Rama: Nothing has been paid. For Tirana.

The other two were not built with state money. They were paid for by the private sector. The Elbasan and Fier incinerators were paid for by the private sector and the state periodically paid… No payment was made for the incinerator. A contract for the waste was paid for.

Sejamini: The contract is for the construction of the incinerator

Rama: We'll leave it.

Sejamini: No, we won't leave it.

Rama: I won't dwell on it... Your truths about incinerators are folklore. It wasn't paid for the incinerator. It was paid for a partnership that should have started... I know what investment was made there.

Sejamini: Nothing has been done.

Rama: 10 minutes left for Albania 2030 for a turbo folk. It has not been paid for. How can a war be fought for facts?

Sejamini: It has been paid. The contract is for concession construction.

Rama: We will do a show about the elections. This is psychological

Fatjona Mejdini: Where are the incinerators?

Rama: Honestly, this is animalism

Sejamini: Governance is about investing the money you receive from citizens, not stealing it

Fatjona Mejdini: This is the situation in Sharra. Waste is not treated

Rama: Did you give these Fevzis anything to drink? / CNA
