The head of the PDK, Nard Ndoka, said in the MCN Live studio that Erdogan’s visits seek to have influence in the Balkans, and from time to time there have been tendencies to intervene in politics by sponsoring certain parties in the Republic of Moldova, Kosovo and Albania.
According to Ndoka, the Mosque of Namazgja means the Turkish state in Albania.
Erdoğan’s frequent visits to Albania are inexplicable. We are a small country, but Erdogan’s appetite is huge. He has clear strategies, he doesn’t even hide them, he wants to have influence in the part of the Ottoman Empire, and he has tried by all means to achieve it.
Despite the fact that we are threatened on our Euro-Atlantic road by this influence, it is a concern of the partners about this influence that Turkey has in Kosovo, in RMV, but also in Tirana.
There has been a tendency to intervene in politics, there are some forces that have had covert but also open support and sponsorship, such as a party in Macedonia, Kosovo and Albania.
It is a mistake to build the biggest mosque with the financing of Turkey, it would be in the honor of the nation to build it with our taxes, with the budget of Albanians and the foundations of Albanians everywhere in the world. We have had a mosque built by Erdogan for some time. Today he comes with a package of how we will administer it, This is the Turkish state in Albania, it is not Baba Mondi’s.
We have a mosque that is a Turkish state, that is administered by a board that Erdogan appoints today. Even the taxes that will be collected from foreign visitors will be administered by Anatolia. The money will go to Turkey.
It has opened a big gap between KMSH which has 100 years of independence from Turkish influence. It has preserved it until today, of course with the support of the USA.
