Democratic Party chairman Lulzim Basha does not trust PM Edi Rama’s promise for war on drugs, saying it is only a fake war, because the heads of crime enjoy protection.

Rama ordered the state police to dismantle the drugs groups and sequester their properties, bought with dirty money.

“Under the international pressure and in front of the danger of a possible ban of the free movement abroad and integration, because of the organized crime and drugs, Rama is trumpeting a fake war on drugs in TV shows”, Basha writes.

“The trick is to target a few unimportant figures, while the heads of the organized crime enjoy protection and are unpunishable”.

“What really unmasks Rama’s actual politic will is Gramoz Ruçi’s appointment as the Speaker of the Parliament and Fatmir Xhafaj as the Interior Minister. Their promotion is the organized crime’s political triumph”.

“Since 2005, the US administration has banned Ruçi from entering the country, because of his involvement in the organized crime and drugs traffic. Fatmir Xhafaj is another discredited figure, engaged in protecting his own brother Agron Xhafaj, convicted by the High Court of Italy as one of the heads of cocaine’s international traffic from the Latin America to Europe. A few other deputies and Rama’s kin are also connected to crime and drugs”.
