President Berisha received representatives of the Socialist Party, Mejdani, Dokle, Majko Once again with your hands in your hair? Because you decided to defeat the constitutional order and Albanian democracy through an armed rebellion! You brought in organized terrorists, you created your own glorious revolt, and through its organization you became an incitement to stir up civil war and overthrow the government to seize power Yesterday, the President of the Republic, Sali Berisha, received in a meeting the Secretary General of the Socialist Party, Mr. Mejdani, and members of the leadership of this party, Messrs. Namik Dokle and Pandeli Majko. Addressing them, the President of the Republic emphasized that the Socialist Party has pushed the country toward catastrophe. The President said that Mr. Mejdani took it upon himself to always bring in the most prominent extremists and those with the most destabilizing influence within his party. President Berisha said that for months the government has called on the chairman of the PS, Mr. Nano, and its leaders to condemn the rebellion, but instead this political force has encouraged it in a primitive and enraged frenzy. For the fate of the Albanian state, at least since May 1996, you have made as a condition regarding the country's leadership the violent overthrow, by force and arms, of the legitimate institutions, the government and parliament. In March of this year, under the pretext of solving the issue of the bankruptcy of the pyramid firms, you raised the most dangerous uprising, you established psychological terror in entire cities, encouraging people to burn their cities, seize weapons from the army and police, and attack SHIK. The President told them that you decided to defeat the constitutional order and Albanian democracy through an armed rebellion. You brought in organized terrorists, you created your own glorious rebels, and through its organization you became an incitement to stir up civil war and overthrow the government to seize power. You gave the name to the communist revolution of 1943-1944, but today you exclude every name except terrorism. The government and the state have adopted extraordinary measures to stop destabilization and restore constitutional order. The President stated that the primary responsibility for the bloodshed and destruction lies with those who incite the crowds and direct the rebellion from political headquarters.
