A European passport is worthless if it does not offer education and healthcare similar to that in European countries, where citizens not only choose for themselves where to study and where to receive healthcare, but will also have the opportunity to afford all obligations.
Edi Rama and the Socialist Party are running one of the most monotonous, tired, and unmotivated campaigns ever. The heavy weight of power on their shoulders, the serious scandals, the massive corruption, but above all, a great popular dissatisfaction, which is beginning to be reflected in Rama's own meetings, show that people are not only tired, but they are demanding change.
In 12 years, Rama and the SP have had, almost, everything. They have had executive and local power 100% of the time and nothing has changed in the lives of Albanians. In this sense, there can be no reason for a fourth term, when you were given the opportunity for three terms in a row and you did not improve anything in the lives of your citizens. In fact, you did the opposite. The longer you stayed in power, the more corruption grew and people left.
Not even the absurd promise of a European passport can save this tired, monotonous, and breathless campaign.
Besides being a promise that has nothing to do with Albanian politics, beyond a piece of cardboard, Albanians need dignity. More than a European passport, they need such treatment in their own country.
They demand equality before the law and state authorities, they demand equal opportunities and a bureaucracy that works the same for all and not for some and not for others, for some it is free and others are forced to pay.
Before Albanians want a European passport with which to 'break the thornbush', they must have higher salaries to afford their living like other citizens of Europe, they must have opportunities and alternative assistance from their state to cope with the difficulties and the ever-increasing cost of living, while salaries remain stagnant, not reflecting the real increase in daily life.
Before Albanians apply for a European passport, they want order and security, they want law and order, they want to feel safe on the streets, safe in their homes, safe in the city and in the community, they want to see lawbreakers brought to justice and not on the side of the next politician.
A European passport is worthless if it does not offer education and healthcare similar to that in European countries, where citizens not only choose for themselves where to study and where to receive healthcare, but will also have the opportunity to afford all obligations.
Rama has had every opportunity to improve all of this in 12 years and has not done so. That is why his campaign today appears monotonous and tired, that is why his absurd promise of a European passport is a big lie, that is why he should leave an hour earlier to give the country and democracy a breather, to give people the opportunity to see and try new alternatives, which they too, if they imitate Rama's path and manner of governing, will also leave.
Only in this way can a climate of fulfillment and punishment be created in our culture. Politicians are voted in if they fulfill their promises, and punished if they do the opposite. Only in this way can a better Albania be made, a European country, even without the need for such a passport.
