Prime Minister Edi Rama asserted that the Parliament’s rejection of the SPAK request for Belinda Balluku’s arrest was a reasonable and appropriate decision. He responded to criticism from several prominent European embassies, underlining the government’s steadfast commitment: Albania’s accession to the European Union by 2030. Rama dismissed the opposition’s reaction, a protest following the parliamentary vote, labeling it as unproductive.
He further commented that the demonstration in Tirana, involving the use of Molotov cocktails, represented an inappropriate and concerning development, with individuals seemingly speaking on behalf of Germany. Rama explained that the Parliament’s refusal to authorize Balluku’s arrest stemmed from the lack of sufficient grounds for such a drastic measure. Rama expressed his congratulations regarding the statements issued by the United Kingdom and Germany, emphasizing the complete alignment between their perspectives and Albania’s position.
He reiterated the shared agreement, stating, “100%, 100%.” The timing of these statements, coinciding with the parliamentary action, was noted. The situation surrounding Belinda Balluku remains a point of contention, with rama prioritizing the EU integration timeline.
