She has presented an estimate of the expenses incurred during the election period, highlighting alarming figures that include investments, new hiring, and the distribution of bonuses, which, according to her, were carried out for electoral purposes.

There is no doubt that Edi Rama does not question the law, but rather violates it whenever he needs to achieve his goals...

The next goal was to buy votes through investments or the use of state resources.

Let's do a calculation of this... 4 months before the election date

And so far, Edi Rama's bill amounts to 104.7 million euros of public money used during the election period for electoral purposes through procurements, hiring, bonuses, etc.

Dear Albanians, these behaviors of Edi Rama are nothing new to you, just as the payments to the non-existent incinerator, which four days ago took 700 thousand euros from you, are nothing new.

Therefore, taking SPAK's silence for granted, we are sending this bill to Edi Rama directly at the summit being held in our Tirana...

And from the DP podium, a question goes to the summit hall..

Is there any Prime Minister or state representative among you who behaves in the same way as Edi Rama towards the law and towards his people, solely to maintain power at all costs...
