The EU stopped the project, at the moment when 6.8 million Euros had been used, but without effectiveness from the factors that were engaged; because corruption was increasing not only in the government, but also within NGOs and structures that had received funds to report and prevent it...
After the theft of grands and donations, which the EU gave to Albania for the financing of farmers; in the dirty hands of fraudulent and thieving officials and "piranhas" of Non-Governmental Organizations, the funds that the EU has given for the projects of the fight against corruption have also fallen.
In the years 2014-2023, the EU has given 25 million Euros, for two projects with the object "Fight against Corruption in Albania, for its prevention through sensitization and public denunciation at any level that is ascertained.
The first project started in 2014, with a funding value of 15 million Euros, for the engagement of NGOs and structures within the state, in anti-corruption activities, where 210 NGOs rushed to extort these funds, most of them with leaders connected in interests with official corrupt circles.
Knowing this fact, the EU decided to direct the funds itself, passing through the filter the NGOs benefiting from the grands; but Prime Minister Edi Rama, whose government was the subject of this anti-corruption project, recruited NGOs, creating the State Agency of Civil Society, with officials from the Prime Minister's Office and his friends.
These NGOs benefited from the funds from the EU, but served the government, conducting surveys, conferences and reports with false data, as if the SP government had no corruption at high levels, but sporadic cases in local units, or as if corruption had decreased significantly compared to the former government until 2013.
But the reports of the USA and the Council of Europe, evidenced growing corruption, especially camouflaged through PPPs, concessions and massively in auctions, tenders and privatizations, increasing 3 times the theft of public funds and bribes to high and middle officials .
The EU stopped funding the project, but in 2017, it re-launched its anti-corruption program in Albania, with another 10 million Euro fund, for the implementation of a cross-sectoral anti-corruption strategy, with the aim of sensitizing society and creating of transparent and incorruptible institutions; project that would last until December 2023.
But even this anti-corruption project, the EU stopped in the middle of 2022, at the moment when 6.8 million Euros were used, but without effectiveness from the factors that were engaged; because corruption was increasing not only in the government, but also within NGOs and structures that had received funds to report and prevent it./Pamphlet
