US Embassy's reaction to the elections/ Shkullaku: They have returned to

Journalist Armand Shkullaku spoke about the US Embassy's reaction to the elections.

On the Çim Peka Live show, Shkullaku said that in 2021 they had lost the role of referee, and now they have returned to that role.

"The two statements you made and taken out of context, 2021 is normal, 2025 is not normal. When there are regular, democratic elections, the winner is congratulated, appreciation is expressed for the participants in the race, and the third sentence is deepening, cooperation, diplomatic courtesy. We think the opposite, that 2021 is abnormal and 2025 is normal."

We have reached a situation where in 2021, when the American embassy became an organization of the Socialist Party for Edi Rama, it happened to us that Secretary Blinken congratulated Rama before the elections were certified, before the final results were out. The congratulations came at a time when for 4 consecutive years, only the opposition had been crucified.

They had convinced us that the US, through the embassy here, had completely lost its role as an arbitrator and to side with the strong, while stigmatizing the weak, seems abnormal to me. It is not our duty to hit the other side. In the history of Albanian-American relations, for the first time a large part of Albanians who did not feel equal by the American embassy, ??had a reaction towards the US. It is a fact that has been conveyed.

The second statement should have greeted the winner, who has compromised the winner so much that they dare not mention his name. DASH told the American journalist that the relationship between the US-Albania cannot be held hostage to the past administration of Joe Biden. It was recognized as political hostage-taking, in view of what DASH had done in the relationship with Albania through the American embassy here. The statement is reserved for this.

They are reserved and did not mention Rama and the SP, as they have had enough time to familiarize themselves with the law enforcement reports, DEA, FBI, the reports on cocaine are not known only to us and Antimafia, but it is a problem that is present. Diplomacy operates separately from the services. They know who they are dealing with from now on. At least, after this catastrophe, the US is trying to return to the role of arbitrator", said Shkullaku./ CNA
