Chief Democrat Lulzim Basha has revealed his two promises to the media, in an event for the 33rd anniversary of the establishment of the “Rilindja Demokratike” newspaper.
During his speech, Basha said that he will free the media from ties to the government and will work for the freedom, safety and dignity of journalists.
He also congratulated the members of the media on this 33rd anniversary of the establishment of the first opposition newspaper in Albania.
“The first pledge today is that the PD, starting with the unveiling of the electoral political program, pledges to free the Albanian media from the bondage of ties to the government, which has undone the main mission of the media, that of protecting and promoting the public interest. AND has damaged the dignity of the media.
The second commitment goes to media workers, to journalists and not only and to the needs not only to write, but to create mechanisms that will implement with the right hand the dignity, safety and freedom of media workers.
With these two promises, I want to return once again to the 33rd anniversary of the RD, to create a new hope for the Albanian media that has come from a difficult year”, said Basha.
