An American lesson on dirty money. For the first time, the “pyramid” scheme is unraveled Washington and Rome against Albanian economic crime Today protest in front of the presidency

Italian Interior Minister Napolitano has not been an official government member. The flooding on the Vlora coast and the arrival in Tirana of the American secretary were a valuable indication for getting to the heart of the matter. Where the key lies in the outrage caused by the firms of national growth. In extension, this must not be accidental. Without time and with the nervousness of the last days of the crisis, many empty words were spoken in Tirana. Among them, too, a fairy tale about a kingdom without kings, about breaking the peripheral walls under the pressure exerted by the invisible radicals, which had already become clear with the Italian and American arrival in Tirana. In this respect, we are not at all surprised by the aimless pendulum of the recent phenomenon, in the game organized between foreign credits and the money lost by Albanians, who in these heated weeks are trying to turn it into a development of wisdom without understanding that their pockets have also been emptied and the mystery of the pyramids has taken on a perfect appearance under the pretext that Italy has arrived. Meanwhile, here a drama is being played out, still not fully deciphered, where the construction of the financial scheme and its cost are being felt more and more in citizens’ pockets; here too another element of the crisis is being revealed: the entry of foreign institutions into this whirlpool in order to send a clearer message that the game is no longer only Albanian. The crisis of trust created by the large financial firms and the state’s delayed response are now at the center of attention. It remains to be seen how far the investigations will go and who will be held responsible for this scheme that is weighing every day more heavily on household finances and the country’s future.
