Berisha accuses the government of ADS: Rama has removed the limits of theft, state capital goes to private companies without tendering

Berisha accuses the government of ADS: Rama has removed the limits of theft,

The leader of the Democratic Party, Sali Berisha, has leveled accusations against the government regarding the creation and operation of the Albanian Digital Solutions (ADS) company, describing it as a mechanism that, according to him, paves the way for the use of public funds outside of tendering procedures.

In a statement to the media, Berisha stated that the establishment of this company is related to legal changes in the field of information technology services and systems, which according to him give wide scope for AKSHI's cooperation with state-owned companies or companies where the state owns the majority of the shares.

Berisha said that through these changes and the way ADS is organized, state capital can be channeled to private entities without going through open procurement procedures.

Berisha: AKSH can cooperate with joint-stock companies where the state owns at least 51 percent of the shares and transfer to them the administration of ICT systems, platforms or infrastructure or entrust them with development and operations from the beginning. In any case, the powers remain with AKSH.

The legal changes were proposed on February 11 by MP Erion Xhepi, Erion Malaj. You have seen, a MP takes it upon himself to propose, since there is no government, there is nothing, amendments with implications with profound financial, transparency and all-round consequences. And since it protects the interests of the Surrel clan, it is voted on blindly. No consultation, nothing.

The company, within the limits permitted by the legislation in force, carries out any commercial and financial operation directly or indirectly related to its object. This also includes the opening of activities and the creation of new companies and participation in the capital of other companies inside and outside the country. It therefore has the authority to act independently without having any legal basis. This state-owned company allows itself to determine its activities without limits.

This point of the article of the statute of this company is almost the same as article 3 and is taken from the statute of the KAYO company, which was given the right to channel state capital to private individuals without tendering. Do you understand the ways that Edi Rama has found to steal now? Take this money, take it to offshore banks.
