A Prime Minister provocative towards the Constitution and the President of the Republic or the right way to leave?

The Constitution of Albania prohibits a Minister to exercise any other state function. The Prime Minister cannot be also a Minister.

Article 103

Item 2. A minister may not exercise any other state function nor be a director or member of the bodies of profit-making companies.

This issue was publically and institutionally clarified in the case of Lleshaj’s decree. He was not decreed as long as he exercised de jure function in the Armed Forces. Only after being released from those functions he was decreed as Minister. Edi Rama has only one possibility to become Foreign Minister. He must step down first as Prime Minister.

The President may decree as Minister only a person who performs no other state function. This is written black on white in the Constitution of Albania. Could it possibly be the way Edi Rama himself has found to step down?
