The leader of the Democratic Party of Albania, Sali Berisha, said today at today's press conference that the opposition is facing attacks from the European Commissioner, Marta Kos, and the EU Ambassador to Albania, Silvio Gonzato. Regarding the latter, Berisha said that he is "a messenger of Prime Minister Edi Rama's propaganda."

"The opposition is facing several targeted attacks by certain individuals who are in the European Commission or who represent the European Union in Albania. Similar, but not identical to Ms. Kos's positions are the positions of Ambassador Gonzato, who is a conduit for Edi Rama's paid propaganda and unrestrained disinformation.

Regarding the latter, I have informed you that this gentleman, in order to convey Edi Rama's propaganda, tells the members of the European Parliament that the president of the DP is not pro-Western because his agenda is MAGA and not integration. This is a fabrication, a fraud, I have condemned it once and I condemn it again. The DP has been and remains absolutely committed to the integration process. All the great integrations of Albania are the work of this party.

As for the deception that he has a MAGA agenda, MAGA as a program of a conservative party, has excellent pillars of protecting the values ??that conservative parties share, and I remind that gentleman, that I don't know where he was 32 years ago when Sali Berisha imposed in Albania the second lowest tax in the world, the lowest VAT in the world after another country and the most conservative, lowest fiscal system. He has done everything to consolidate the family, he has protected the national interest.
So, if there is a concordance, we are proud of the values ??that we defend and no one from the positions of left-wing extremism can ever conduct a witch hunt against our program. If President Donald Trump is defending and consolidating these values ??in the USA, this is in the interest of all humanity.

Or after the other scam that Chris LaCivita has brought here a check for 9 billion euros in case Albania wins to secede from the EU. Albanians should know that this is Edi Rama's propaganda and has been conveyed at all levels in the chancelleries in Brussels. These are slanders ," Berisha said. /CNA
