Protests/ Former socialist minister: Rama's fall is inevitable!

Former SP minister Arben Malaj has commented on the protests against Prime Minister Edi Rama, describing them as massive and with great political impact.

According to him, the unity of the Albanian youth and diaspora is a strong signal against the current government and could lead to inevitable changes.

Malaj accuses the government of arrogance, ties to the oligarchy, and lack of reflection on citizens' dissatisfaction.

He cites as an example former French President Charles de Gaulle, who resigned after losing the support of the younger generation, emphasizing that history shows that no government can survive long without the support of youth.

"The protest is already very massive and, without a doubt, will be productive. Time has shown that when a people rises, no corrupt government can last long. Today, all the youth of Albania, the youth of the diaspora and that of all Albanian lands are telling this government clearly and firmly:

“We don’t want you anymore!” But instead of reflecting, he chooses to provoke them with contemptuous and arrogant language. This behavior is a pure attempt to create social tensions, with the only goal: to feed his greed for absolute and eternal power. This is a power that is inextricably linked to crime and government oligarchs, just as greedy as he is, who are strangling the future of this country. History teaches us that this kind of political blindness always brings the same end.

Even great and historical leaders have been forced to step down when they lost touch with their youth. The clearest case is that of French President Charles de Gaulle after the massive uprisings of May 1968. When Paris was engulfed by student protests, it was precisely the confrontation with the truth and the influence of his family that made him understand that the younger generation no longer wanted the old and authoritarian system that he represented. De Gaulle understood that without the support of the youth he could no longer govern with legitimacy; he tested the people's trust with a referendum and, when he received a negative response,

He immediately resigned and left forever. Unlike De Gaulle, who chose dignity and resignation before history, today's greedy leaders behind the chair try to survive through verbal violence and tension. But history has shown that when youth and the diaspora unite against oligarchy and crime, the only product is the inevitable fall of the regime", - Malaj says, among other things.
