Today, the court decisions were given for the officials who were accused of the Elbasan incinerator affair, where the former minister Lefter Koka and a number of officials were convicted, while the former deputy, Alqi Blako, was declared innocent.
Analyst Neritan Sejamini, invited to the show "Te Paespozuarit" on MCN TV, has explained the chronology of the start of the national environmental emergency, which was determined immediately after the coming to power of Edi Rama, through a committee that declared an emergency, invented a term that does not exist in any law.
Sejamini also explained how the government turned the entire waste management pyramid upside down, going against EU directives and wasting millions of euros, to give priority to incinerators, which turned out to be serious corruption affairs.
" The Rama government came to power on September 14, 2013. Less than a month later, in October 2013, the Rama government created a committee for integrated waste management, composed of deputy ministers, who were empowered to declare a state of emergency national environmental committee. It has just come to power, this is one of the first decisions. The term environmental emergency does not exist anywhere in Albanian law. This committee, in February 2014, takes a decision to declare an environmental emergency in Albania, without analysis and study.
What does this mean? There is nothing at all. Two deputy the ministers reject it, they are both lawyers.
After the environmental emergency was declared, Mr. Rama brought out the army that collected the garbage. After that, the way was opened for environmental emergencies. Elbasani and all in a row.
The Albanian government has a national strategy for waste, which determines that waste is first prevented, reused, recycled, buried and finally incinerated, i.e. burning. In support of this strategy, which is in line with the EU, foreign organizations have given millions of euros for the construction of landfills. Suddenly, the government completely changes this strategy, violates the laws and throws away the money, setting the first national priority to the construction of incinerators. Then there are the incinerators, with the same companies and the same scheme.
Regardless of who stole and how much he stole, I can't help but think that there was a state tendency to take advantage, by changing the strategy, to go to the burners, because there was probably money and customers there. I don't find any reason of public interest, cost or European standards to switch from the EU strategy to the burners and a dubious concessions procedure ", declared Sejamini.
