Interior Minister Albana Koçiu has reacted after fireworks and Molotov cocktails were thrown at the Prime Minister's Office. In a post on social media, Koçiu condemns the encouragement of acts of violence, according to her, by opposition leaders and calls on the organizers to keep minors away so as not to endanger their lives and those of citizens.
"We condemn any encouragement of acts of violence by opposition leaders. We call on the organizers of the protest to appeal to sympathizers to avoid acts of violence and to keep minors away from any act that would endanger their lives and those of citizens. Violence is not a solution! Violence is a manifestation of desperation by those who, instead of an alternative, create scenes that endanger the lives of citizens, police officers and journalists ," Koçiu writes alongside photos of fireworks and Molotov cocktails being thrown at the protest.
According to her, " those young people and minors who engage in acts of violence are neither heroes nor brave, but are the abusers of those who pathologically continue to rely on violence, unable to build an alternative other than destruction."
