Former Prime Minister Sali Berisha has ‘congratulated’ with a long message the Secretary of State Blinken, who is conducting an 8-hour visit today. In the long, hastily written message, Berisha reminds the American secretary of the facts that, according to him, led him to make the decision to declare him ‘non grata’ in the USA with charges fabricated by Edi Rama, Mcgonigal and his associates.
On May 19, 2021, Secretary Blinken announced the punishment of Berisha and his family members.
Berisha’s message:
Welcome to monist Albania.
Dear friends, the visit of the secretary of the US State Department for any country and moreover for Albania is a very important event, especially in this troubled period for the world and our region.
The Democratic Party, the main promoter of cooperation and friendship between Albania and the United States these 33 years, which officially introduced Albania to NATO, a decade and a half ago, the main locomotive of Albania’s integration processes in the EU, remains determined to support and not waver like until today the cooperation and friendship between our two countries and every effort in the framework of NATO, but also in the US bilateral level for peace and security in the region, Europe and beyond. Dear friends, today’s visit of Secretary Blinken is the 6th visit of a Secretary of State to Albania. But this is the first visit of a state secretary, after 33 years of pluralism, which unfortunately, at least in the protocol, only has meetings with the State Party.
This is due to the massive violation of the vote by the government, today as never before in the history of the country, 95% of all high officials appointed or elected belong to the state party of Edi Rames.
Second, Edi Rama, currently the most corrupt prime minister in Europe to control the opposition in a super Watergate of this century bribed the head of counterintelligence of the New York FBI, Charles McGonigal and paid him at least 225 thousand dollars to manipulate files against the Albanian opposition. The documents prove that in addition to McGonigal, Louis Bladel, Marco Rossini, Edi Rama and his mentor George Soros lobbied hard for my nongrata declaration, without evidence, for corruption, that is, 8 years after I had resigned from any function.
They do this with the sole purpose of silencing the voices that strongly denounced the mega corrupt affairs of Edi Rama, his terrible connections with crime in Albania, the region up to the Albanian boss of Sinaloa in Mexico, but also the denunciation of Edi Rama’s support of the projects Russian Serbs in the region such as the change of borders and the de facto division of Kosovo between Serbia and Albania.
They do this because we strongly opposed the Open Balkans project, which is openly supported by Sergei Lavrov and just as openly by Alexis Soros, as well as his open defense of Belgrade at international summits for non-compliance with NATO sanctions and EU to Russia. But on this occasion I want to guarantee you friends that as I wrote in my letter to Secretary Blinken in May 2021 that at the moment when the US government, its agencies or any other country will present a single proof or document to prove my corruption, Sali Berisha finally leaves politics.
The truth is that after three years of intensive and numerous investigations, the government, the judiciary controlled by it and no one else have been able to find any evidence or document to incriminate Sali Berisha, so I am today under the political order of Edi Rames, like no other. another opposition leader under arrest, but without any charges and with a process in violation of the Constitution and Albanian laws, but also international human rights conventions!
Today I am under political order under house arrest as a person under investigation because my son-in-law Jamarber Malltezi, as one of the 510 thousand Albanian citizens who in the years 2006-2021 have received a total of 1 billion 577 million 400 thousand m2 of land in lieu of property and compensation and he in full compliance with the law 410 m2 of his family’s land confiscated by the communist regime 60 years ago.
Monism in Albania is also installed because Edi Rama has been denying basic constitutional rights to the 43 members of the opposition in Parliament for a long time. He does not accept the creation of parliamentary investigative commissions for his large corrupt mega-affairs, his PPP. Dubai City of Durres, Butrint Park, for the Rama-McGonigal super scandal, for which there is a trial tomorrow in Washington. He does not accept their elected representatives in the parliamentary commissions and with his strict control over justice and his public order keeps the leader of the largest opposition party under house arrest without charges, transforming Albania into a NATO member country. Uganda or Tunisia of Europe. With this act, Edi Rama continues the tradition of his biological father, the former deputy of the dictator Ramiz Alia, who signed in August 1988 the last political execution in all of Eastern Europe, the hanging on a rope as a political opponent of the dissident poet Havzi Nela. For all of this, I want to guarantee the Albanians and friends of Albania in the USA and everywhere in the world that the Albanian opposition is today more determined than ever to restore free elections and political pluralism in Albania based precisely on the values of freedom that Secretary James Baker spoke about in front of 200 thousand Albanians 33 years ago.
