The Minister of State for Relations with the Parliament, Elisa Spiropali, stated today that the law “On criminal amnesty”, which allows the release of convicts serving prison terms, who have less than 3-4 years of their sentence left settled, it is not being approved because of the opposition.

This initiative requires the vote in favor of 84 deputies, a number of votes that the majority cannot fulfill alone.

“The bill has not yet been voted on. There have been several “flying” parliamentary sessions, where in each of them, at least 84 deputies would have to raise their cards and vote in favor. Men who have three years left in prison and many women with four years of sentence still unspent, would celebrate the New Year in their families”, Spiropali emphasizes.

“For the sake of hatred towards the government, Edi Rama and the phobia of betrayal, no one from the opposition had the courage to take a single small step, to do a big job. Isolation and punishment is not a goal in itself of criminal policy. Throwing the keys into the sea for a category of citizens who at some point had a problem with the law is not the key that makes society safer, healthier, more just. Rehabilitation, not oblivion, is the aim of a modern society for the individual who has made a mistake. That does not throw away, but brings it closer. That does not kill, but heals. That does not build walls, but reopens doors of opportunities”, she adds.

Spiropali pointed out that opposition MPs are welcome to vote for the law, calling the vote a political act and emancipation.

“I don’t know if it will be Gazi or Luli, Albana or Enkelejdi, Dashi or other “lambs and lions” from the opposition who will dare to cast the first vote. Everyone is welcome. Everyone is invited to do a political and human act, an act of emancipation, which does not simply go to the treatment of a wound, but to the cure of this cruelty that is eating the soul of the whole society. And that, contrary to what the naive think, makes him wiser. Let’s vote and then repeat: let the war continue”, she said.

On the eve of the beginning of the new parliamentary session, the minister continued, let all those who think that muscles and not mind, self-restraint and not haste, are political tools.

“It’s a slow but sure walk forward. They are the right step to do small jobs, which need great love, clear mind and political spirit. After reaching a consensus on this act, let every political lion on this side of the Balkans remember the drama of that anonymous Japanese soldier on a Pacific island. To that dramatic soldier who was still in the war trenches because he could not believe that peace had come”, the minister emphasized.
