He said that every citizen should objectively assess what has actually been achieved in the country, without being influenced by personal interests, party-affiliated employment, or fan-like support for politics.
“Democracy is not about blind allegiance. It means managing the money of the citizens you represent better and responding to their concerns,” the journalist said.
During the discussion, Stafa mentioned several promises left unfulfilled by successive governments over the years. His list included the provision of drinking water and the legalization of properties, a process that has continued to drag on for more than a decade.
The journalist also addressed problems within the healthcare system, particularly the lack of a functioning emergency air transport service.
According to him, administrative delays have fatal consequences, while citizens continue to lose their lives on Albania’s roads, despite promises to train pilots during 2024-2025.
Stafa stressed that shortcomings in public services are a problem that affects everyone, from healthcare and education to pensions and salaries.
He also commented on recently published footage showing a minor appearing frightened as he is escorted to a police station during the protests. According to Stafa, the case is a serious indication of how institutions respond to citizens.
