As usual, he does not ask what this means. Better to keep quiet, because later, when arguments are brought in about the rust, they call him slandered. For the Kadare supporters, the lemons of the accord for the sovereignty ceremony that is taking place make their eyes blaze. The President bites back harshly with words. Once again he explodes against the government, in addressing local power and the need to guard against dirty hands. If the country keeps such people in its belly, those it needs by its head. Yes, in the end the President continues to appear irredeemable in his role. Yes, Mr. President, this is the kind of formalism you have created! You distracted our minds and think of Albanian events as something else. Yes, again you are striking the same chord. After this, what should impress us is the fact that you are avoiding the truth. You have no relationship with Albanians; you think that a President lays matters upon his own head. Yes, Mr. President, this form cannot be done even if you wanted it. Yes, Mr. President, by wavering back and forth, by creating hesitation and the disgust necessary to move away from the government, you are putting the state at risk. Page 5
