Release of Tahir, Kim: Disappointing! Consequences for judges who help the

The US Ambassador in Tirana, Yuri Kim, has called the release from prison of the former Minister of the Interior, Saimir Tahiri, disappointing for the justice system.

In a post on social networks, he writes that these methods used by Albanian justice are not suitable for a NATO country that aspires to integrate into the European Union.

According to Kim, there will be consequences for those judges who help the "powerful".

"Very disappointing to see that the old ways of impunity and privilege for some continue in the justice system. These old ways are not suitable for a NATO ally and EU aspirants and they must be firmly rejected.

The US considers corruption to be a fundamental national security threat. Those who engage in giving or accepting threats and inducements — for example, to help powerful friends — must understand that their actions will have consequences ," Kim wrote on Twitter.
