Agron Shehaj has created a new political party called "Opportunity".
He was invited to the show "Te Paespozuarit" on MCN TV, to talk about his new initiative. During the show, there was a debate with Ylli Rakip regarding the fact that Shehaj does not denounce Sali Berisha, as he does with Rama, while they are responsible for the system created in Albania in 30 years.
Shehaj said that there is a hierarchy of responsibilities and he will not attack the opposition.
Part of the debate
Ylli Rakipi: You had completely filled that Palace of Congresses, word also came out that Agroni has also taken the employees there... Now how is the situation? Why did you create this force? So far the new forces that have been created have failed. Why did you create "Opportunity"?
Agron Shehaj: I hope your pessimism is not contagious. I understand the doubt, I know to say, humanity has walked through failure. This is how development has come in every field, in every society. Even in our daily life. Even children when they stand up, fall, take a few steps, fall. That's how new things come. One starts, one fails, then another comes. One day the change will come. Do you really think that we will always have two political parties in Albania? The point is, in these debates that we have done together and in other debates, I have constantly heard dissatisfaction with the current parties. This debate always, how bad, how sold, how incompetent. Now, when someone takes the courage, it can be a crazy idea, maybe he doesn't see the obstacles that you see and takes the initiative, directly, say 30 years it hasn't happened and it won't happen. I do not agree with this approach.
Ylli Rakipi: Let's dwell a little on the past. You were in PD, why did you leave there and what was wrong?
Agron Shehaj: In DP I tried to do my duty as a deputy. A representative has two duties, to report and to tell the truth, I have done that. On the other hand, it should speak for the future and be reliable. I got to a point where I didn't think I was trustworthy enough to continue. I thought it wasn't worth it anymore, because I wasn't reliable enough to talk about the future, because DP needs to renew itself and change its language, opening up, issues I've been talking about. I got to the point where I ran for president, I saw that it wasn't changing anything and it wasn't worth it anymore.
Ylli Rakipi: This system was made by Sali Berisha and Edi Rama. And if you don't say that this system was also made by Sali Berisha, you are not telling the truth. If you say that I don't insult the opposition, I don't understand. I might be wrong and you might be right. I had this dilemma.
Agron Shehaj: You are used to other parties, that 90% of the time they engaged in insults and attacks on the party they came from. And I have decided not to do that. I am saying, it is a fact that the parties that were born, have dealt with the leaders of the parties that they came against. I have decided not to take it.
Ylli Rakipi: I don't understand this.
Agron Shehaj: This does not mean that I am not aware of Sali Berisha's responsibilities when he was in power. I know that corruption and oligarchs were not born with Rama. But I also know that we have a prime minister who has been governing for 11 years. I also know that when Sali Berisha was President and Prime Minister he made mistakes. Edi Rama took it and took it to another level.
In my arguments, I have decided to deal with the government and not with the opposition. There are those who deal with the opposition, even the attacks that come for the opposition are not coincidences. I believe that if we agree on the fact that Rama has set up a system that turned the elections into a formality, he did it because he attacked the opposition, he used the control and influence he has in the media, he also used elements of the opposition. This is the only country in the world that thinks the fault and responsibility lies with the opposition. Imagine if someone came from abroad, from Japan, and found out that this is a poor and corrupt country, and we tell you that the opposition is corrupt.
Ylli Rakipi: Yes, you ran away from there in vain.
Neritan Sejamini: It could be the entire political class that is problematic. Even the opposition that is not renewed, hurts them.
Agron Shehaj: I am saying that there is a level of responsibility. It is initially the government that has received the mandate.
Ylli Rakipi: You are defending the opposition, why did you leave, brother? Why stay there and tear Edi Rama to pieces.
Agron Shehaj: You said you won't vote for me if I don't deal with Berisha.
Ylli Rakipi: No, I said I won't vote for you if you don't deal with Edi Rama and Sali Berisha.
Agron Shehaj: I'm sorry, but I don't move from my focus and conviction.
