Albanian ending How to turn democracy into a circus When we say a failed country, we mean Albania, when we say Albania, we mean a failed country. The opposition disrupted the parliament session in Tirana in the most literal sense: members of the Democratic Party blocked the podium and lit a fire in the hall. The reason was the vote on the law on the central bank, which the parliaments, of course, no longer cared about. Sally Berisha, former president and prime minister and now the leader of the opposition, called the ruling elites "criminals" from the podium, adding that they deserve tear gas, rubber bullets and broken skulls, not the youth on the streets. Student protests demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama have been going on since mid-October, sweeping through the center of Tirana and spreading to other cities. As a result, hundreds of victims were set on fire, including police officers, government buildings and banks. The reason is standard for the Balkan countries - corruption, unemployment and degradation in education, but this time it turned out that the mixture is incendiary. In Albania, not only the authorities and the demonstrators cannot agree, but also the deputies turn the parliamentary tribune into a colorful arena with pyrotechnics and fights, playing to the public and inciting the electorate to protest. However, Edi Rama's position is still unassailable due to the tough security bloc, which has repeatedly suppressed street protests. - Chronicle of the powder keg of Europe Support us.
