Bollino again against the protesters/ "They are incompetent"

2026-06-29 10:19:00, Aktualitet CNA

Carlo Bollino has once again come out against the protesters, stating that they "are incompetent." Italian Carlo Bollino, who came to Albania with a backpack and is now a billionaire, is known as one of the biggest supporters of the Rilindja government and Erion Veliaj.

He is a beneficiary of government concessions and a man connected to Rama's power tentacles, with deep access to Erion Veliaj's offices, has gone against the protesters, saying they are incompetent.

“ The more you listen to and read their surreal political platforms, the more doubt arises: should the coordinators of this protest really be taken seriously or not? The fact that the leading group, which has already been made public, completely lacks names from the academic world, science, economics, literature and justice, raises quite a few questions about the level of representation and prestige of these organizers. But is it possible that none of them is now able to articulate a project for change for the country that is at least somewhat credible and, above all, feasible? The impression that is created by reading their proposals is that the protest has, in fact, ended up in the hands of a group of radical revolutionaries, perhaps honest, but completely utopian and disconnected from reality, completely incapable of proposing a concrete political and institutional path that can achieve the change that so many protesters sincerely seek ,” writes Bollino.

Incinerators and connections to power affairs

This is the man who told Albanians "how beautiful and how well the Fier incinerator functioned," while that facility is still out of operation.

How many more times will we see the media "cry" about incinerators?

Moreover, he is one of the people involved as a beneficiary of concessions, of beneficiary companies, of corruption and government affairs. A scandalous case denounced by the opposition involves him in the AKSHI affair, as a beneficiary through Igli Gjelishti.

Yesterday he wrote against the protesters, even though he couldn't understand what this protest was for almost a month. He emphasizes that they are "incompetent."

This gentleman, who introduces himself as a journalist, stayed in Tirana with the Rilindja government more out of concern than to see Albania change. More than an independent journalist, he is a beneficiary of power. He claims to make a difference, but in fact he is a businessman who is not much different from others who claim to make a difference.

Apparently, even today he could not escape his next service to the government by telling us that the protesters are incompetent. They may seem incompetent to him simply and only because they are not with the party and the government that the Italian from Lecce, who has become a billionaire in Albania, wants.
