The PSSH welcomes the statement by German Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel
Regarding the statement by German Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel, the PSSH spokesperson made the following assessment:
Mr. Kinkel’s statement expresses the German Government’s realistic position regarding the deep crisis engulfing Albania and the situation created as a result of allowing pyramid companies to operate. Through this statement, it also confirms the position of the chancelleries of other EU countries. The German Government’s concern is expressed regarding the announced idea of declaring a state of emergency, which has damaged the image of the current administration. Consequently, resolving this crisis that has engulfed our country rightly requires the commitment of all political forces and the contribution of the United States and EU member states to overcome this multidimensional collapse.
