"The electoral terror of May 11 will not be accepted", Blushi: ODIHR condemned Rama's "elections" as not free

The Secretary General of the Freedom Party, Tedi Blushia, commented on the statements of the head of the ODIHR mission, Ambassador Lamberto Zannier, on the May 11 local elections in Albania, which were described as "unfair and unfree".

In an official statement, Blushi considers this stance as an official act of international condemnation for the electoral terror committed on May 11 under the direction of the Narco-Government.

Blushi : The Freedom Party fully supports the very clear positions of the head of the ODIHR observer mission, Ambassador Lamberto Zannier, that the May 11 elections in Albania were neither equal nor free.

This finding marks an official act of international condemnation for the electoral terror carried out on May 11 under the direction of the Drug Government.

Faced with these serious findings, published by an international institution with unquestionable authority, it is clear that Albania is already in a deep crisis of legitimacy and democracy.

The drug government committed one of the most serious forms of electoral manipulation and intimidation on May 11th. 

ODIHR observers, as Ambassador Zannier testified, have seen with their own eyes frightened citizens, open pressures, and flagrant misuse of public administration and state funds in favor of the ruling party.

This is a direct and indisputable accusation against Edi Rama, that the elections were not held in a free, fair and democratic environment.

Against this alarming backdrop, SPAK's silence is a scandal in itself.

While clear facts and indications of electoral crimes have been publicly denounced, and now officially by international observers, SPAK continues to behave like an institution that has decided to close its eyes, close its files and keep its mouth shut, just like with the intellectual crimes of the Tirana incinerator that does not exist or with the Charles McGonigal file that sleeps in Altin Dumani's drawers, even though in the indictment of the American justice system that sentenced him to prison, Edi Rama is mentioned 14 times.

The citizens of Albania are seeing that the "new justice" is nothing more than a political shield for electoral crime, which began with the terrorist kidnapping of the President of the Freedom Party, Ilir Meta, and was sealed with the electoral terror of May 11.

The total lack of impunity for those who violate the vote, buy influence and suppress the free voice of the citizen is an unacceptable act of amnesty that is undermining any hope for fair elections in the future, and Altin Dumani is co-responsible, as much as Edi Rama, for encouraging, inciting and condoning the electoral massacre.

Edi Rama's government is responsible for destroying the basic standards of democracy in the country, while SPAK has now become a blind tool of power, only to hit the opposition and not the bandits who, in Vore, on election day, took hostage the polling stations, threatening opposition leaders and MPs.

These criminalized elections did not meet any international standards and violently violated the Copenhagen criteria, and the Freedom Party is determined to continue its uncompromising battle to denounce with facts and evidence the manipulation of the electoral process through state capture and criminal collaboration in voter intimidation and manipulation of results; the judicial persecution of opposition leaders; the institutional impunity for electoral crimes, which were clearly condemned in the very important resolution of the European Parliament as well as in four resolutions of the most important political organizations in the world, such as the IDC-CDI.

The Freedom Party strongly condemns the terrorist destruction of election standards and the criminal silence of SPAK.

The electoral terror of May 11 will never be accepted by the Freedom Party and the opposition because Albania can never integrate into Europe with Edi Rama's "Bulgarian trains", but only by following the constitutional tracks and international standards that guarantee free voting and fair elections.

Without guaranteeing free voting, the foundation of democracy and the rule of law, there can be no integration of Albania into the European family!
