The end of Rama, the man who came as hope for the country and ended up as the leader of a gang of criminals
By Armand SHKULLAKU
In 12 years as prime minister, Edi Rama has never looked worse than in the last two days, after the imprisonment of his intended successor in the Socialist Party. With the appearance of a stunted raven, whose feathers are falling out, revealing his diseased skin, the leader of the Rilindja organization has finally surrendered, admitting that the principles or standards he has propagated so far have been mere nonsense.
Conditioned by the political and media weight of Veliaj that he himself has given him, panicked that a “tiger no. 2” might scream from his cell and under the paranoia that the “heroes” of SPAK are being preceded by another wind blowing across the ocean and could get out of control, the “reformer” prime minister has come up with the thesis of the danger of a Republic of Prosecutors. Having sworn that he would never comment on the actions of the new justice system, he accused prosecutors and judges in his capacity as prime minister of being opposition and security suicide bombers, mentioned their high salaries and blackmailed them that if he gets a fourth mandate he will set other standards for justice. With this stance, he has filled the mouths of all those who were alarmed by Berisha’s language, who does not have the power of the prime minister to influence and blackmail the justice system, with something that will prevent them from speaking.
Worse than that, Edi Rama was forced to appear as a scoundrel in front of the organization and its “martyrs”, to whom until yesterday he had trumpeted that responsibility is individual and that the party is not a law firm for those who eat pears behind his back, but in the case of Veliaj, the responsibility lies with the standards of the new justice.
The organization’s MPs, who stand like chickens when their boss changes his stance 180 degrees, heard that he was sensitive about the fact that who would take Erjon’s son to school, but they couldn’t remember why he wasn’t touched about Arben Ahmetaj’s baby or the grown-up girls who had to read the news about vibrators in their father’s house. Edi Rama can rightly demand evidence for Veli’s imprisonment, but as prime minister why didn’t he also ask for Fredi Beleri and Sali Berisha? He was upset that an artist had his phone taken away by SPAK, but he rubbed his hands when the former president and the man who gave him power both in the Municipality and in the government, was dragged away by masked policemen.
These double standards are not so much to show the morality of Edi Rama, as to prove to the socialists themselves that the leader of the organization has reached the point where he cannot defend and show anything convincing in front of them, except empty pirouettes and raising his voice towards subordinates when his internet goes out. With Velija’s imprisonment, the thesis of individual guilt has fallen. Normally, in a country where democracy works, a prime minister with the mayor and the party’s number two in prison, with key ministers in prison and a whole series of officials and deputies convicted or under indictment, all for corruption, would have resigned in time. To avoid this more than normal responsibility, Rama had no choice but to absurdly attack a justice system that has never dared to reach him or the electoral crime that keeps him in power.
Rama today is not humiliated in the eyes of those who elected him, just for the fact that he has set up a corrupt system. He is arrogant in front of ordinary socialists who are seeing every day what luxury Edi Rama and his friends have transformed their vote into. Erjoni does not wear a dress, the prime minister tried to justify himself, but he did not say that 900 thousand euros of online purchases were not given to Ajola by “dad for Bajrom”, but by abuse and arrogance with a power that is considered eternal. The prime minister, the delight of expensive wines, charter flights, VIP seats in the NBA, could not give any other explanation. He can spend on physiological detoxes, but he is surrendered in the face of the poisoning he has caused to Albanians.
Therefore, this time, when the 10-year-old abuse in the Tirana municipality had no net to let it out, Edi Rama could not justify it with apples and pears. His garden of corruption has come to light, along with the destruction of the image of a man who came as hope for the country and ended up as the capo of a gang of evildoers. With his recent public appearances, he will also be remembered as the record of a politician who ran out of alibis to cover up the abuses and scandals he produced. That is why he is no longer able to do blah blah blah, but only kra kra kra. (Lapsi.al)
