From a heated race a year ago with accusations, threats and nationalist tones, today's elections in Himare were under an almost total "calm".
After the 15-month battle that started with the arrest of Fredi Beler and followed by a long saga of clashes and political accusations both at home and abroad, Himara has finally decided who will be its new mayor.
Today, over 8,000 Himarjo residents have cast their will in the ballot boxes for the candidate who will lead them to the head of the Himara Municipality.
With a typical story like that of "a hair that becomes a beam", the issue of Himara echoed all the way to the European Parliament, of course with the impetus of our neighbors in Athens, who were the main supporters of the candidate of the coalition "Bashke Fitomje", Fredi Beleri.
Without realizing it, Himara turned into a "battlefield" which would be used for more than 1 year, by both sides of the border for political credo by two prime ministers, who for their own interests kept the issue pumped up.
14 months later, the tones between Tirana and official Athens were lowered as if they had never existed at all, when Prime Minister Edi Rama met with his Greek counterpart, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, during the Summit of the European Political Community, which was held in Great Britain a month later. seen.
In that meeting, it is suspected that the "pact for Himara" was reached between Rama and Mitsotakis. An agreement which was also reflected during the short electoral campaign that took place for Himara, but also today during the voting process.
From a heated race a year ago with accusations, threats and nationalist tones, today's elections in Himare were under an almost total "calm". Apparently, the candidacy of two "philo-Greek" figures, such as Perto Gjikuria and Vangjel Tavo, was the "pact" that satisfied official Athens, which, on the contrary, from 15 months ago, was not felt at all in these elections.
The Rama-Mitsotakis Pact seems to have been accepted by the opposition, which in its statement today, even before the voting was closed, seemed to accept the defeat of their candidate through accusations./ Pamphlet
