What did Ben Ristani do? He burned the election materials with ceremony in the Erzen River, as a result of a rage, or rather an order to vent the anger that often grips Dr. Berisha.
Today we are almost a month after the May 11 elections closed, but the official results are not expected to be released until the end of July at least.
This is because the DP representatives in the CEC, or KAS, are using the right to recount in the largest districts in the country as a "Swedish breakfast".
In fact, even though it's late, it's not a drama. After a "recount" with editing of the May 11 votes is done, the result comes out like the "cold" one that once sat in the printing house as an editor to avoid grammatical and semantic errors in the newspaper.
In a word, the more the boxes are opened, the better it is for transparency in general, for the media if they want to see what has changed and how, but also for students and researchers of political science, so that they can get their doctorates not just from YouTube or shows, but by touching the Albanian political reality with their own hands.
This reality is completely different from what the media reports give us. For example, in 2009. When the elections brought a very close result between the SP and the DP. Where everything was decided by one MP in Fier and in Berat. And the DP, at that time, had two heavyweights as political leaders: the late Sokol Olldashi in Fier and Genc Pollo in Berat.
The SP, namely the opposition people in the CEC, requested a recount in some polling stations, not in all of these two districts. The head of the Central Election Commission at the time, Arben Ristani, who was later elected number 2 of the DP, did not accept the reopening of some boxes.
And to be clear, we were not talking about boxes of ballots, but boxes of electoral materials, which contain lists of voters with their signatures, ID card numbers, as well as other signs and objects that should be preserved in the state archive. Even as historical artifacts of an event that is, in reality, essential for the political development of the country.
What did Ben Ristani do? He burned the election materials with ceremony in the Erzen River, as a result of a rage, or rather an order to vent the anger that often grips Dr. Berisha.
Who a few days later was openly challenged in parliament by the leader of the opposition in the Assembly. Which was not Edi Rama, since the leader of the Socialist Party was the mayor of Tirana at the time, that is, in 2009, and the key role of the opposition leader was held by Gramoz Ruçi.
Who, with a finding all Albanians challenged Sali Berisha head to head, but the latter beat him. Gramoz Ruçi, came to the podium of the Parliament and said: Sali, just open the box of electoral materials of the village of Ruzhdie in Fier. If the papers come out in order, I resign and leave politics. Otherwise; make transparency in the demands of the opposition. Sali Berisha did not speak, or spoke with the tongue of fire that Ben Ristani put on the electoral materials.
A signal that no government in the post-communist countries of the Balkans and the East has given. That fire was not simply a signal for the opposition, which had gone through even more frightening times with the "doctor" that Rama has another electoral division, but for the internationals. Who in fact did not kill him much. And Rama kept them in his pocket, and today, reminds Ruzhdien,
A few days ago, Edi Rama posted a photo with one of the veterans of the German CDU, who is still a lobbyist and supporter of Berisha today. Namely, former MEP Elmr Brok, who in 2009 was a key actor in the negotiations that later led to the infamous Crocodile dinner. Which produced nothing after Berisha ordered Ristan to activate the "lighter" operation.
