Berisha's accusations about family tenders, Rama reacts

Prime Minister Edi Rama, during the communication with the media, was also asked about the accusations of the chief democrat Sali Berisha, that his daughter and brother-in-law received tenders.

" You put me in a bit of a difficult position, because while I'm not inclined to comment on the allegations of someone who is blacklisted by the US and Great Britain for major corruption and undermining democracy, and subject to justice in Albania, for the reasons you know, the question comes from you, a journalist, and avoiding it would create an unfair misunderstanding with the people you quoted. My answer is very simple, never. Never. In no case has any member of my family benefited from public funds.

And not only that, but since you are giving me this opportunity, I want to let everyone know, even those who might be impressed by the absurd accusation of millions of euros spent on flights that I and in all cases that members of my family travel with me, I travel in 2 ways.

In cases of official visits or my work as prime minister, with the relevant plane, in all other cases, with the airlines like all Albanians, economically and at my own expense and that of my family. In all the cases when it happened that I had a work visit and my wife accompanied me, not as part of the work visit, or the children with us, we paid for it ourselves, the state did not. I make this clarification because I want to bring an example of how I and we in our fmail understand my duty. None of these accusations go to the end, when it remains between what one says and what the other says. You should verify what I am saying. If there is something wrong, expose it, make it known. Yes, I say it with great pride, any attempt to make symmetry or competition in the dirt with my family, is a desperate attempt ," Rama emphasized.
