The Minister for Relations with the Parliament, Elisa Spiropali, has called on the opposition to vote on the criminal amnesty law.
Through a post on the social network 'Facebook', she writes that two months ago the draft law on criminal amnesty was approved by the government, but hundreds of citizens who could gain their freedom before time have not yet had this opportunity, as 84 deputies would have to voted, but none of the opposition did.
" Rehabilitation, not oblivion, is the goal of a modern society for the individual who made a mistake ", writes Spiropali, inviting the opposition to vote, and then let them "restart the fight".
Full status of Elisa Spiropali:
For the lambs of the opposition that are worth more than its lions.
Mother Teresa, the great Albanian, has an epitaph, which in this troubled time is even more significant.
Mother Teresa prays to do small things, but with great love. The essence of this philosophy, summarized in a single axiom, should serve as a guide for the daily life of an individual, a society, or even what is called great politics in its routine.
It has been more than a month since the Albanian government approved the draft law on criminal amnesty. It is about several hundreds of Albanian citizens and even further, several thousand families who live outside with the drama of those inside, who would gain their freedom before time.
What happened? The bill has not yet been voted on. There have been several "flying" parliamentary sessions, where in each of them, at least 84 deputies would have to raise their cards and vote in favor. Men who have three years left in prison and many women with four years of their sentence still unspent, would celebrate the New Year in their families.
But, while politics raised glasses for congratulations and sent greetings of the "sent to all" type, while the Assembly hall still smelled of the smoke of futile flares, while the chairs were used as barricades to divide "us and them", while hundreds were spent hours of television about the legal fate of Sali Berisha, while a group of his supporters stood at "Sala's alley" to protest against the imaginary regime, while those who have seen the good of the fight in three decades went into the night to wake up with the fight of next morning, that is, while all this was happening, the bill was condemned to oblivion! For the sake of hatred towards the government, Edi Rama and the phobia of betrayal, no one from the opposition had the courage to take a single small step, to do a big job.
Isolation and punishment is not a goal in itself of criminal policy. Throwing the keys into the sea for a category of citizens who at some point had a problem with the law is not the key that makes society safer, healthier, more just.
Rehabilitation, not oblivion, is the aim of a modern society for the individual who has made a mistake. That does not throw away, but brings it closer.
That does not kill, but heals. That does not build walls, but reopens doors of opportunities.
I don't know if it will be Gazi or Luli, Albana or Enkelejdi, Dashi or other "lambs and lions" from the opposition who will dare to cast the first vote. Everyone is welcome.
Everyone is invited to do a political and human act, an act of emancipation, which does not simply go to the treatment of a wound, but to the cure of this cruelty that is eating the soul of the whole society. And that, contrary to what the naive think, makes him wiser.
Let's vote and then repeat: let the war continue! On the eve of the beginning of the new parliamentary session, let all those who think that muscles and not the mind, self-improvement and not haste, are political tools.
They are a slow but sure march forward. They are the right step to do small jobs, which need great love, clear mind and political spirit.
After reaching a consensus on this act, let every political lion on this side of the Balkans remember the drama of that anonymous Japanese soldier on a Pacific island. To that dramatic soldier who was still in the war trenches because he could not believe that peace had come!
