ALEKSANDËR GJOKA The recent political protests have also turned into strikes. Reality in Albanian political ideals has led us to the end, and it has been going on for 10 years. Yesterday’s protest by students of agricultural business in front of the Ministry of Education signaled the first strike in the strike-organization arena; political changes belong in parliament, not in the street. This has been the case in governance, as strikes have always come as a result of general dissatisfaction against smugglers. They have been mentioned more officially by the opposition, which saw an advantage after the last 10 years, apparently where the rule is not broken. These are protests and an opposition policy led by such; dissatisfaction with the government, but not a strike. With a smile and democratic support, banned in other anti-democratic circles, let us at least leave the satire of those confined. The opposition declares that it has never dared to face the rare truth, and as such it becomes a precedent. However, the warnings of a strike escalation also seem not to go so far as to gain the accepted sensitivity of the government’s declared scenes. The inherited memory of the spirit of the movement of Albanians and the closeness to the spirit of minimized dissatisfaction supported by certain oligarchs. If the smile of protest and its violence were excluded, today one cannot say that it is that, or that it is accompanied by smuggling as well. The government, the near strike and the exhausted forces remind us of the bitter and difficult life of Albanians. The whole scene of moving through my calculations and those of the current and past government is just as constitutive as to preserve a part from the crisis. Which is the richest in shocks of consumption in one part of incomplete shocks and market shocks, what part? Moves rather than shocks.
