Democratic Party Chairman Lulzim Basha met today the Country Manager of the World Bank for Albania Maryam Salim to talk about the economic crisis in the country and WB projects. Basha said Albanian economy is the most endangered one in the region. According to the opposition chief, the Democratic Party’s (PD) mission is restoring hope and rebuilding the economy.

“Officially, one out of two Albanians does not meet the minimum criteria of survival expenses”, Basha sadi after the meeting. “Consumption is on a historic low. The record drop of citizens’ and business’ trust in the economy makes 2020 even harder than the years we left behind”.

"Our main concern is the uncontrolled increase of public debt, the increase of arrears by €600 million, the economic crisis and the risks of corrupt affairs put under the veil of PPPs and corrupt concessions. This, accompanied with the affair of the so-called Investment Corporation, has made Albania the country with the most vulnerable economy in the region”.

“I reaffirmed my commitment that there is no more important battle for the Democratic Party than the fight against state corruption, which is driving Albanians away, destroying the economy and killing hope. The Democratic Party is committed to rebuilding the economy and restoring hope and confidence that only through fair work, free competition, low taxes will we overcome this crisis and create employment and development opportunities for every Albanian".
