Berisha after his stay in Berlin: I met with CDU and Bundestag officials, raised concerns about autocracy

Democratic Party chairman Sali Berisha paid a visit to Berlin, where he took part in the jubilee event of the SME Parliamentary Circle (PKM) of the CDU/CSU parliamentary group in the German Bundestag, and also held several meetings with important political figures in Germany.

Berisha said that in his talks with MPs and senior CDU officials he expressed his appreciation for their support for the Democratic Party and the Albanian opposition. He also said that he informed his interlocutors about what he described as the severe crisis Albania is going through under Edi Rama’s leadership.

“In all these meetings, I expressed my deep gratitude to our friends in the CDU and the Bundestag for their support for Albania, the Democratic Party and the opposition in Albania. I also informed my interlocutors about the deep crisis the country is going through under the autocratic dictatorship of Edi Rama, about the just demands of Albanian youth in the longest and most powerful protest in Albania’s history, as well as about the cynical stance of Edi Rama and his narco-government toward these demands.

During my stay in Berlin, we met and were hosted by my friend, former MP and former Kosovo deputy minister Gani Dreshaj, and other representatives of the diaspora, whom I sincerely thank very much for their hospitality and the assistance they provided us during our stay in Germany,” Berisha wrote alongside the photos.
