President Bajram Begaj is approaching 100 days at the head of the state. The powers it has are more symbolic, but time is enough to make some balances.
But what is the balance of Bajram Begaj as President of the country? The still young head of state does not have a good relationship with the media. Apart from the formal announcements he sends from the press office and the official website of the Presidency, his media releases are zero.
There are some rumors that Begaj has received several invitations to the series from moderators of national televisions, but he has not yet visited the studios.
Why is Bajram Begaj afraid of appearing in front of the media? As a young person in office, the exits had to be as frequent as possible to convince the Albanians why he deserves the position he holds, because the bottom line from the taxes of the Albanians is paid both for his salary and for the privileges he enjoys together with his family.
The community of journalists and analysts is trying to understand the reason for the rejection of Bajram Begaj's public appearances and jokingly tells the corridors that he is waiting for Edi Rama's approval and this approval has not been given yet.
Today, the figure of the President is even more "mysterious" than it was in the beginning. This is also shown by recent polls, which revealed the only politician for whom the majority of Albanians do not have an opinion, neither positive nor negative.
But, while maintaining "neutrality" in the opinion, Bajram Begajt is losing ground under the Presidency and the institution is degrading him more and more every day by the intrigues and elbows of protagonists.
According to the sources of Vox News, there are no more clashes and elbows between the old and the young, but also between the close staff of the President. The Chief of Cabinet does not communicate with the Secretary General, while Begaj has distanced himself from his close staff, with whom he communicates through intermediaries.
The reason was the wrong moves that were suggested to him. We recall that some time ago he fired the director of communications, Edvin Shvarc, with a banal motivation that backfired on him even in public opinion.
The councilors were also closed so that they could not go to the office. Seeing that he could not drive people away by force, he turned to the legal way. Now, he has created a new structure which has created the idea that it will be easier to remove the employees of the Presidency.
