RSF and ECMPF: Albanian Prime Minister must respect press freedom

Reporters Without Borders (RSF) and the European Centre for Press and Media Freedom (ECPMF) condemned last week the behavior of Prime Minister Edi Rama, who has threatened the Chief Political Reporter of the German newspaper Bild with legal action. “The Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama has a peculiar understanding of democracy and human rights,” RSF Germany Managing Director Christian Mihr said.

“It’s the duty of the media, amongst other things, to hold the powerful to account. That is exactly what the Bild newspaper has done and it has also amply supported its research with sources. These are the cornerstones of a free press, which we have anchored in the values of our community in the European Union.

A nation that so badly wants to become a part of that community must respect these values,” Mihr added. “Instead of filing lawsuits against journalists, PM Edi Rama should engage in improving press freedom in the country and stop calling journalists ‘rubbish bins’,” Flutura Kusari, ECPMF’s Legal Advisor, said.
