Berisha with the number 1 hat: They took the health equipment out of use so you

During the presentation of the 'PD-ASHM' candidates in Kamza, the Chairman of the Democratic Party, Sali Berisha, strongly accused the current government of impoverishing Albanians, which forced over a million of them to leave the country.

Berisha stated that the healthcare system in Albania is in a catastrophic state and accused the government of decommissioning modern equipment that was brought in during his time in power, to force citizens to go to private providers and pay large sums for tests.

Berisha : Yes, yes, let no one doubt that the decision is solemn, the money will be returned to Albanians.
The money will be returned to Albanians in pensions and salaries.
Not only that, every pensioner and salaried person will have a consumer card, which means that they will buy food and basic things 20 percent cheaper than others.
My friends, the state of healthcare is catastrophic.
Two days ago, the government's INSTAT declared that Albanians spend on their healthcare from their own pockets - the one that promised free healthcare - spend 820 million euros from their own pockets per year, they spend more than any other nation.
Do you know why you spend and how you spend from your own pockets? I tell you, the money from the budget that is allocated for your healthcare is stolen, stolen and only stolen. By Edi Rama with his PPPs, by the Minister of Health, by Vilma Nushi.
How do they steal from you, friends? Yes, yes, the equipment doesn't work. Equipment that cost millions of euros.
We imported 100 million euros of equipment over 8 years, we brought the most modern equipment. Today they have all been taken out of use just because you have to go to a private clinic to have the tests done. You have to pay the hairs of your head to a private clinic.
Today, the last 10 days of the month, no tests are done in hospitals and ambulances because you have to go to a private clinic to have them done.
Today, all the cyclotrons are broken.
Today, patients with the most serious diseases, for which medicines are vital, do not die from the diseases, but from the lack of medicines.
And this man, who you can call any epithet, but I don't want to spoil his speech, says that crimes against humanity are being committed there. But if crimes against humanity are being committed and you see that crimes against humanity are being committed and you don't take any measures, you are the main criminal of crimes against humanity because you are the prime minister. The Prime Minister has all the power, all the authority, all the money to intervene urgently, to overturn any situation, to resolve any situation.
My friends, by setting the minimum living wage for every Albanian, we lift Albanians out of misery.
We make it possible for Albanians to be fed, to be able to receive medicines with reimbursement.
And I guarantee you, that here, most of you here who have people abroad, the first thing they ask for is medicines, because ineffective medicines are sold here. The medicines of Tom Doshi and Vilma Nushi and Edi Rama, because they share the money with them.
So, no, we will give him a very good answer.
Mr. Poti, who spoke here, his family members are today among the most successful businessmen. But I guarantee that there will be no more need for medicines from them because the list of medicines that Italy reimburses for its citizens, Albania will bring one by one. Yes, yes.
And since I am here with your family, they and all the Albanian emigrants, who have this year, their year, will return to Albania, five years without any taxes.
They will return to Albania with soft lines of credit for the success of their businesses.
With soft lines of credit for the purchase of apartments.
We will do everything so that they come to build their beautiful dream, the Albanian dream on their land.
