Alimehmeti: The Municipality of Tirana is seen as a cow to be milked and as a

Tirana Municipality Councilor, Ilir Alimehmeti, invited to the "Now" show with Erla Mëhilli, spoke about the situation in the municipality, Veliaj's dismissal and the complaint filed.

Alimehmeti said that a municipality that respects the law and the Constitution is needed.

The Democratic councilor said that incinerator money continues to be paid and tax money continues to be wasted. Regardless of Erion Veliaj's presence or not, Alimehmerti stated that in the first 7 months of 2025, only 14% of the municipality's investments have been realized.

Further, Alimehmeti said that the socialist councilors in the municipality have not allowed the establishment of the financial commission.

Alimehmeti stated that the Municipality of Tirana is seen as a ladder to climb in order to reach the leadership of the government or as a "cow" to be milked financially.

Regarding the fact of whether or not there will be elections in the capital, Alimehmeti expressed his conviction that there will be elections in the Municipality of Tirana.

" On the day of the arrest, everyone came out to complain in front of the doors of SPAK. It didn't happen again, it was closed there. The prime minister gave the order. Big issues are not talked about, like incinerators.

The incinerators' money continues to be paid, our public money continues to be wasted. We need a municipality that returns to the law and the Constitution. With or without Erion Veliaj, from the Tirana Municipality budget for the 7 months of 2025, only 14% of the investments have been realized. The Municipality of Tirana, on the one hand, is seen as a cow to be milked in monetary terms and as a step to be stepped on to reach the Prime Minister's Office. The councilors did not allow the establishment of the municipality's financial commission to be put on the agenda. They have no problem at all with violating the laws.

"I am convinced that there are elections in Tirana ," said Alimehmeti./ CNA
