Security expert, Ilir Kulla, invited to “Albania Live” on Top Channel, spoke about the plan to create a Bektashi state in Albania.
According to Kulla, the order for the creation of the Bektashi state is similar to that of Malta, and not the Vatican, adding that there will be passports.
As for the borders, he said that there is no need, arguing that the soul has no borders.
“I am neither for nor against. It is necessary or not, the Albanian authorities decide. Today as we speak, there is a need for a legal explanation of the process. In these agreements it is stated that the religious communities will govern according to their own rules. Is it right to bring the public in to discuss it or not? The third is form. I think it’s not the Vatican, but the Order of Malta.
Have the Bektashians or Rama asked him to do this? Legally, the Bektashians have the right to request a renegotiation. Rather than seeing it as a foreign state, as a small Albanian order, which de facto is not a state. De facto, they need the renegotiation of the agreement between the Bektashi community and the Council of Ministers. How will the Bektashi community manage the properties, will they be tax-free, will they have the right to have their own bank. It’s a series of things… there doesn’t need to be a limit. The spirit has no limits. There will be passports. Anyone can enter. If Albania takes over the recognition of this state… don’t think that there will be an army. It will be as it is, it will have this kind of symbology.
We have 5 religious communities. There is no need for constitutional changes for me. The territory is there. They will have some more attributes. They will call themselves the Bektashian state. Whether they will be recognized or not, that remains to be seen,” said the security expert.
