The US ambassador to Tirana, Yuri Kim, seems to have read all the criticism against her after her speech at the anti-corruption conference on Monday.
Kim was accused of talking about the fight against corruption among the corrupt, but the head of American diplomacy in Tirana considers the comments against her malicious, while posting once again the main messages of the speech she gave yesterday at the government event.
"Once again, spin doctors are working hard, misinterpreting the US view of the fight against corruption in Albania.
Here's what I actually said - please read and judge for yourself: You are at a critical juncture in your story. You have to decide practically which direction you will go: will you go forward or backward? Who will own your land?
Organized crime will be dominated only by the oligarchs, or even ordinary people will have the opportunity to gain, to own property, to develop property, and to get rich. You have to decide.
Will this be the case that anyone here will try for special relationships, just to succeed, or will you create a system where everyone is equal before the law and where your child is just as valuable, just as free? , just as capable and has the same opportunities as someone else's child.
So this is a big moment and we believe, like the United States, that you will make the right choice, just as you did at every other critical moment. "Thank you for your participation today and we look forward to continuing to work very closely with you," Kim wrote on Twitter.
Once again, the spin doctors are hard at work, misrepresenting the US view on the fight against corruption in Albania. Here is what I actually said - please read & judge for yourself: https://t.co/2SSX9RupAd https://t.co/Tl2NHsveki
