The American Secretary of State has begun to dream of the corrupt...
The arrival of the American Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, has worried the Albanian political class. Even though such a high personality is coming to the country, it seems like there is no joy. Sali Berisha once welcomed Hillary Clinton with song and dance, but Blinken's arrival has worried everyone, from Edi Rama himself, to Berisha, Meta and everyone else.
First, there is a mystery over the real reasons for the visit and the agenda of the meetings is not yet officially known. He will meet Rama and Duman, but there is no schedule of when he will come and when the meetings will take place. Apparently, it is more of a visit than it seems. This evening it will be Ambassador Yuri Kim who will give details. She will hold an online conversation with some Albanian journalists and it is expected that things will be clarified.
On the other hand, if we look at the reactions of the political class, it seems that everyone is anxious. Edi Rama came out running and made a long status a few days ago, where he combed the tail of the Secretary of State and tried to show that Albania has flourished during his government.
On the other hand, SP MPs have tried to sell his visit as support for them, but that is not the case. In everyone's attitudes, there is a kind of uncertainty as to why Blinken is coming and why he will meet Altin Duman. Rama has a sensitive file in SPAK. McGonigal's trial is on February 16, and Blinken comes the day before. It is not surprising to talk to Duman about this file as well.
The most worried is undoubtedly Sali Berisha. The media close to him have launched an attack on Blinken, while all DP deputies have decided to avoid him. A media known to belong to the Berisha family has left nothing unsaid about Blinken. Likewise, members of Rithammelili have attacked him, showing that his arrival scared them. Blinken was the one who declared Berisha undesirable and he will probably give support to SPAK not to be afraid of the former prime minister, but to go to the end of the investigations.
Today, for the first time, Ilir Meta also spoke out, who tried to reduce the value of this visit. According to him, it is a normal visit and there are no surprises.
" I think that the arrival of the Secretary of State is already something normal in the relations between our two countries, considering the frequent visits, from the time of Secretary Baker until the most recent visit of Mr. Kerry, mentioning here Mrs. Clinton, Mrs. Albright, Mr. Powell and many other Secretaries of State who have visited Tirana, who have also used Tirana for very important initiatives such as the signing of the Adriatic Charter during Secretary Powell's visit to Tirana with the Foreign Ministers of Albania, Macedonia and Croatia in a historic process, which ended with the membership of these countries in NATO ", said Meta.
So it seems that Meta is not enthusiastic at all and the signals are that he also has a problem with justice. Blinken's meeting with Duman gives a clear message that the Americans support SPAK to hit anyone. Even Meta has several open files and the fear is that maybe Blinken will come and give an ultimatum to hurry up with the investigations for the corrupt and Meta is the first to risk ending up behind bars.
The developments remain to be seen in the coming days, but Meta, Rama, Berisha and many others these days are sure to see dreams with Blinken. / Pamphlet
