The hypocrisy of the “Meta” invitation

editorial By Edi PALOKA Demagoguery and hypocrisy are the traits that have stood out more than any other quality in the Meta government. Faced with numerous accusations, from all sides, inside and outside Albania, the diminutive Prime Minister Meta has reverted to the most prominent qualities of his fathers: demagoguery, deceit and hypocrisy. The “invitation” Meta sent to the PD and the opposition for purported cooperation in the fight against corruption is part of this. From the day he sat down in the prime minister’s chair, Meta took it upon himself to put on a show far too difficult for a mediocre actor like him. on page 2

The government is protecting Azem Hajdari’s killers

Today, 432 days since the murder of the December Leader “Every day that passes since the murder of Azem Hajdari, symbol of democracy and pluralism, proves the involvement of the government of Fatos Nano and his successor in the crime that shook all Albanians. The governments of the former communists not only leave free and unpursued the criminals who took the December Leader’s life; they also show Albanians that they have been and remain on the side of the murderers, whose names are known but who are untouched by those in power. Democrats and all Albanians who loved and supported Azem Hajdari can under no circumstances tolerate this wrongdoing. The government must either catch the criminals and bring them to justice, or publicly declare that it itself committed the murder of Azem Hajdari.”
