TIRANA, January 24 – The chairman of the Democratic Party (DP), Sali Berisha, has said that Prime Minister Edi Rama is an influential agent of the Russians. Referring to the arrest of Edi Rama’s friend, a former senior FBI official accused of Russian ties, Berisha said the opposition will demand a parliamentary investigation.
“Edi Rama used the former secret police officer for investigations against the opposition in New York. The documents of the Ministry of Justice prove that the prime minister’s office gave Agron Neza concrete information about American citizens who lobbied for the opposition. These were put under surveillance by the asset of the Russian resources, McGonigal,” said Berisha in a press conference on Tuesday.
According to Berisha, Edi Rama talked with McGonigal about Russian investments in Albania, according to public records. “You can imagine what the secret file contains… It is important that Edi Rama, when I denounced in the parliament this Russian connection of Edi Rama, this connection with a dangerous asset, Edi Rama reacted as follows: I am proud of the friendship I have with him!” said the DP head.
All this reminds Albanians that Edi Rama’s positions as an influential Russian agent are not coincidental to Belgrade’s position on Russian sanctions.
“… But, what the DP will deal with has to do with the obscure connections of Edi Rama, Dorian Duçka, Agron Neza, in this all-round agent, mafia, multi-faceted affair,” said Berisha, who accused the prosecution authority for serious crime, SPAK that it is sworn to never investigate its party (Socialist Party).
Berisha announced that the DP will set up a parliamentary investigative commission and establish relations with the US Congress. /Argumentum.al
