Lawyer Spartak Ngjela warns Rama: Handing over Sazan constitutes national treason and is punishable by imprisonment

Albanian lawyer Spartak Ngjela has reacted harshly to the possibility that the island of Sazan could be transferred to a foreign power. He considers such an action a direct blow to the country’s sovereignty and geostrategic position.

In a message published on Facebook, Ngjela directly addressed Prime Minister Edi Rama, warning him that taking such a step would have serious criminal consequences. According to him, the move constitutes “treason against the nation,” and he called for an immediate withdrawal from any initiative of this kind.

In his reaction, the lawyer stressed that the island of Sazan must never be handed over, as this would serve the interests of Belgrade and anti-Albanian forces. He underlined that such an act would constitute a violation of the territory of the Republic of Albania and that Sazan is of particular importance to the country’s national defense strategy.

The lawyer’s full message also included a direct appeal to the prime minister: “Be careful, Edi Rama, because you are not the owner of Albania!” He added that responsibility would fall not only on Rama, but also on the entire parliamentary majority that would vote for such a decision, which he categorized as treason.

Spartak Ngjela continued by linking the fate of the island to the historical pressures exerted by Belgrade and Moscow, which, according to him, have sought for centuries to seize it from Albania. For this reason, he insisted that the prime minister must withdraw urgently, recalling that the territory of the Republic enjoys special protection under the Constitution.

At the conclusion of his post, the lawyer called for the immediate intervention of SPAK. He declared that if Rama were to carry out this anti-national act, he should be arrested without delay for treason against the homeland, on the grounds that he had violated Albania’s territory.
