Minister Bode speaks about the freezing of the foundations’ deposits The Socialist Party, a party of misfortune "They are reserved like usury, the bankruptcy of the 'Xhaferri' company, often the quarrels of governance, a way to control the people". Sude, and the collapse of the complicated "popular" funds, have already taken on the greatest political, economic and psychological dimensions. In recent statements, the anti-national leader Fatos Nano and his Socialist Party allies claim that the foundations have been ruined by the Democratic Party government, absurdly accusing us of trying to protect an illegal activity to the detriment of all Albanians. On the contrary, Albanian citizens have been drawn into a great game of deception, in which the organizers of the pyramid schemes have used the imagination and greed of part of the population to obtain large sums of money. With this stance, the Socialist Party appears as the party that encouraged, protected and politicized these fraudulent schemes. I know how all depositors in these deposits are secured only by the fact that the government has frozen in the bank are safe. These funds will be made available to depositors according to the government's rules and criteria. Such seizures are not new. The Ministry of Finance and the state structures are working so that every citizen receives a fair and lawful solution. Interview with Kristaq Luniku, Governor of the Bank of Albania "The lists of the clients of the pyramid companies should be preserved and the money returned to them" The crisis of the pyramid companies is addressed by the Governor of the Bank of Albania "if, of course, the clients' lists must be preserved and the money returned to them, the apartment or shop must be taken, what belongs to each, money, apartment or shop" The bank is a financial intermediary. I will not issue any license from the Central Bank for banking activity with which they will not be exposed and must in the first place have the link we have for the pyramid activity, not issued but in fact brought into production concepts with such high interest rates.

Deputy Minister of Finance Sherefedin Shehu speaks about the government's decision to block the foundations' deposits: the best solution among the possible solutions Page 3 The situation is linked to the Albanian economy, the bankruptcy, the disappearance of the most irresponsible investment firms and the activity for the moment is the administration of the pyramid companies. This issue is above us and was for the activity and activity implications of the enterprise, mainly for the parasitic activity of construction. Only in one period have we felt the impact of the deposits of the popular foundations and their crisis. The process includes the blocking of the deposits of the popular foundations and the use of the enterprises with all the consequences. After steps are taken for a solution, the deposits are frozen and through the banking system they will be administered in the fairest way. At the same time, the government must create financial and administrative instruments to stop the further growth of abuses and to protect the interests of citizens who have deposited their savings. This is the best solution among the possible solutions.
