The sculpture of Mother Teresa at Rinas airport

Journalist Arsen Rusta reacted harshly to the sculpture of Mother Teresa at Rinas airport, where the saint is seen with her face covered.

Through a letter, Rusta asks to know how the figure of the great Mother Teresa on the main gate of the country can be despised.

He declares that the saint's face cannot be covered, as it carries history, wrinkles, years of life, taste, disappointment, hope and human life.

The journalist demands that this sculpture be removed an hour ago from that public and national place.

"Mother Teresa" with her face covered!!! But how can this more...

What about Mother Teresa?!!!!

About 9 years ago, the great Max Velo would leave with his interview, the unfinished task of a dignified Sculpture of Mother Teresa today, Saint Teresa.

How is it possible that the surprise of this great woman with Albanian blood is always done at the main gate where foreigners and Albanians enter her country, the country of eagles. Rinas airport

I am listing some photos

But how can such a magnificent lady cover her face…..

Who dares to do this in a country with religious tolerance, a few days after the Muslims have properly celebrated Ramadan and the Catholic and Orthodox Easter.

Who is bored by the face of the most representative Albanian!!!

Dear representatives of the airport, the Ministry of Culture, the Bank, dear Sculptor, every art has value because in most cases abstraction itself is art. But the Holy Face of Teresa cannot be covered for any taste. In that face there is Albania, there are wrinkles, there are years of life, there is history, there is taste, there is disappointment, there is hope, there is human life!

Feeling insulted by the covering of Saint Teresa's face, I, Muslim Arsen Rusta, appeal for this Sculpture to be removed an hour ago from that public and national place.

We wonder why we hide our History and Identity!/ CNA.al
