TIRANA, February 17 – The chairman of the Democratic Party (DP), Sali Berisha responded on Friday to Prime Minister Edi Rama, who said on Thursday evening that there is no chance that the DP will set up an investigative commission on the McGonigal case.
But Berisha told Rama that the parliamentary investigative commission will be set up.
“With absolute arrogance, Edi Rama declares that I go to the parliament when I want, despite the fact that the constitution has clear provisions for the obligation of the deputy to the parliament, for the obligation of the PM to the parliament,” said Berisha.
“There is no place in the world where a prime minister participates only in 19 government meetings out of 48. The prime minister is obliged to preside over government meetings except in very special cases,” he said.
“He declared last night that I have no chance of allowing the parliamentary investigative commission on the affair of the century, one of the affairs that have shaken politics and life to the core in the US, in Albania, but throughout the free countries. Edi Rama has no chance to obstruct the constitutional right of the Albanian parliament to create the commission. We will create the Commission and McGonigal is in prison, and Rama must go to prison,” declared Berisha. /Argumentum.al
