The President meets Democratic women Berisha: If you want credit, wear skirts The head of state promises loans and special interest rates for women by encouraging all businessmen to register their companies in the names of wives, mothers and sisters PS a danger to the Balkans Berisha’s promise yesterday before the Democratic women risks sparking a feminist movement in Albania or, worse still, encouraging elements of matriarchy. The financial benefits promised to women may cause the vast majority of Albanian companies and firms to be registered in women’s names, and likewise for family money to be deposited in women’s names. This could bring about an unforeseen independence of Albanian womanhood, thus upsetting the biblical balance of human society and of Albanian society as well.

The current government, a bad example for future governance As Brozi was dismissed, Berisha could also be dismissed PD officials may be removed from office under laws they themselves approved The issue is that the current government set the precedent for doing anything, even in contradiction with constitutional principles. For example, after the unconstitutional action of Parliament in dismissing Chief Justice Brozi, it would have been completely normal for the current president to be removed by a parliamentary vote within three minutes. All the more so since he does not have a vote of confidence for two legislatures, but does have the right to seek this vote of confidence in two legislatures. page 5
