Prime Minister Edi Rama does not back down from the incident with journalist Ambrozia Meta, to whom he extended his hand to touch her.
Not only did Rama not apologize, as the journalist Blendi Fevziu told him, but he accused the journalist of acting deliberately to manipulate the public.
Rama said he reached out to her in a friendly way, but she reacted with exaggeration and screams.
"Exaggerated acting, pulling and screaming were as if a blow had happened, nor did I feel that there was anything to clarify, and I did not imagine that it would take on such proportions on purpose by the instigators. The feeling should be forgotten by you and all those who ask for it, and above all, by that journalist who manipulated the public and acted", declared Rama, among other things.
