Prime Minister Edi Rama, in a speech full of attacks on SPAK and GJKKO, remembered those he once let go of, from former Deputy Prime Minister Arben Ahmetaj, former Minister Ilir Beqaj, and Mayor Erion Veliaj.

With voice and image, Rama said that next time SPAK should come to the Assembly 'armed' with evidence. Among other things, Rama said that without evidence and facts SPAK wants to put Balluk in prison without trial, while adding that the SP cannot accept this.

Rama: This is new evidence, which is not even new. And when I think that it is brought with this ease, in the Albanian Parliament, to demand the head of an elected official, after everything has been done to put 7 lashes not under the ground, but in the mud. Just imagine how a simple, defenseless person could eat the arrest warrant in the face.

And when you see this, you understand concretely how many people in Albania are fed up with it, how for the black face of the perpetrators, such clashes over arrest warrants, Albania has become the black sheep of arrest, with many prisoners in pre-trial detention.

They live off the backs of others. Let's put it in once, because a recording has come out, we have received some text messages. But what is an elected official? A head to be taken as a trophy at the Bazaar? After it has been mutilated and scarred. A structured criminal group, the judge said to the prosecutor about Ilir Beqaj, the referee. The player in front said; it was a goal. The referee said; there were two goals. The other referees said; there were 3 goals. Did the structured group score? Yes, Ilir Beqaj. I didn't talk about him because there was no decision. After a pot was raised and boiled, there was a structured group. Here the prosecutor asks, the judge runs. But in our name, no! With our vote, no. Next time when they come to the Assembly to ask for immunity, because this is a misunderstanding, because there is no immunity from investigation and wiretapping, for any of us.

To raise our heads to take to prison, a deputy with these arguments? What are we, co-authors of the creation of the people of pre-trial detention in Albania? When they come to demand the lifting of immunity, they should come armed with evidence. As they came the first two times. For the first case they had evidence and for the second case, a mountain of arguments! A woman with two wives? to legitimize the extreme request, arrest without trial. Putting us, the socialist majority, who have given the soul to justice and the skin to independent justice, in absurd situations.

Do what you have to do…mmmm. Where has this political force been seen in the history of Europe. Open what my sister says about these things (Refers to Meloni). Let them investigate Balluk, put him on trial for equality in tenders 6 years ago, but let them not insult our intelligence by telling us that she is destroying evidence. She did not risk evidence even when she was a minister, and today that she is an MP is not even a question. It is a request related to the role of the minister. Then the court decides as it sees fit, it is an independent power.
