A former high-level FBI agent, Charles McGonigal, who was involved in the investigation into the Trump campaign's contacts with Russia during the 2016 election, has himself come under scrutiny by federal prosecutors for his ties to Russia and other foreign governments.
The media has also talked about his relationship with Prime Minister Edi Rama. Asked by the citizens during an online communication, the head of the government said that he is his friend, but the matter with the justice is a matter that belongs to him in the USA, while he called to wait for the decision of the justice regarding the investigations.
' There is no fault, which Russians of mine? The FBI's counterterrorism chief was and is a friend of mine. If he has a case of his own with justice in the US that is his case. Let justice speak in the US, that's not how justice is done. I expect much more than that, I expect it all. It is terrible for this people, for all that we consider Albanian values, it is terrible. I have nothing more to say than that, it is about an issue that has nothing to do with the Albanian government. There is no business whatsoever. - said Rama.
