For several days, there have been hints online that the Municipality of Mirdita may be dissolved as a result of the new territorial reform.

But what about the truth?

The Minister of Defense, Ermal Nufi, who is also the political leader of the Socialist Party for the Lezha Region, says that this is not true.

"Not only as a political leader of the Lezha Region, but also as a man with strong and proud roots in Mirdita, which has been and will always remain one of the most representative regions of the Albanian national identity - TWO SHORT WORDS on the debate about the experts' report on the administrative-territorial reform:

FIRST: At no point does this report propose the merger or unification of the Mirdita Municipality with any other municipality. Therefore, there is no reason for the people of Mirdita to be concerned about interpretations that do not stem from the content of the document.

SECOND: For Mirdita, the point is not to dwell on debates about scenarios that the report does not present. What is important is to focus our energies on developing the local economy, improving public services, and creating more opportunities for the future of this community with extraordinary human, historical, and cultural values.

No one wins by denying reality! Mirdita, like many other areas of the country, faces economic and development challenges that have been known for years. But precisely for this reason we need more responsibility.

"We need more focus and energy on how to make it stronger economically, more attractive to young people, with more investments, with better quality public services and with more development opportunities," he writes, following hints about the merger of the Mirdita Municipality.
