Analyst Agim Baçi has stated that the merger of the Ministry of Culture by Prime Minister Edi Rama and its merger with the Ministry of Economy means that he is turning it into a business.
He said that with this action, Rama shows that he is not worried about the national interest.
According to him, Rama thinks that everything can now be sold in the market and no one will be able to hold him accountable.
"This is Rama's fixed culture, he established the fixed culture according to him. If we thought that a former minister of culture would do it a few years later, we would be surprised. Since Rama has established a culture of his own, it now seems that he is not concerned about national identity. Because the purpose of culture is to protect the national identity, not to transfer it to business.
Combining the economy with culture, he thinks that anything related to culture can be transferred to business. He now no longer has any responsibility to preserve culture, preserve identity, etc.
Now it seems that Rama thinks that anything can pass on the market. In any country to increase cultural tourism, I understand this. It is imperative that culture remains culture and is passed on to future generations. The Majority will not reject what Rama says, because he has not shown any rejection in these 10 years," Baçi said.
Yesterday, Blendi Gonxhe was proposed by Prime Minister Edi Rama as Minister of Economy, Culture and Innovation.
This will be a new department created in the government, which will bring about the merger of two ministries, that of Economy and that of Culture.
