"Extreme poverty is a state crime"/ Berisha: The living wage should be

The Chairman of the Democratic Party, Sali Berisha, held a meeting this afternoon with the Department of Social Affairs at the DP.

In his speech from the blue headquarters, Berisha focused on the situation with the living wage in Albania, which according to them should not be less than 200 euros, to bring concrete changes in the conditions of emergency.

 "The DP has announced and stands for the establishment of a living wage."

The living wage is the most minimal, most necessary, most urgent response to this situation that has been created for these 13 years.

Only with the living wage, guaranteeing every citizen of this country no less than 200 euros, a living wage of 200 euros, will it be possible to create and change the painful situation we find ourselves in today.

There is no obstacle to establishing a living wage.

And the living wage cannot be the only answer to this situation.

The subsistence minimum will be accompanied by a series of other social measures, which guarantee Albanians a life at its minimum sufficient for food, clothing, medicine, and movement.

So, it is an emergency response, which must be decided as soon as possible and must recognize its own dynamics and grow year after year, following all indicators so that existing poverty receives a definitive response.

Albania cannot possibly have extreme poverty.

Extreme poverty is a state crime today because it is a situation accepted by the government.

And to accept leaving citizens in extreme poverty, at a time when there is every possibility that it does not exist, just as it does not exist in other countries, in the vast majority of other countries, therefore, the living wage provides the final answer to the elimination of extreme poverty", declared Berisha./ CNA
