Opposition leader Sali Berisha has directly accused Prime Minister Edi Rama of fiscal policy on oil and the situation of negotiations with the European Union.
In a video message published on his Facebook profile on Easter Sunday, Sali Berisha accused the government of record taxes on fuel and of blocking the European integration process due to internal affairs.
Berisha stated that the government applies the highest level of taxation on oil, claiming that 60% of the price consists of taxes and that the state benefits about 1.1 euros per liter. He described the government's intervention in excise duty as invalid, emphasizing that the mechanism only comes into effect above the level of 220 lek per liter.
In the same statement, he linked the fuel price to a knock-on effect on the economy, mentioning farmers and other price increases. According to him, reducing the fiscal burden remains the only way to stabilize the market. On the political front, Berisha accused the government of blocking the IBAR report and, according to him, the negotiation process with the EU. He rejected the claim that the opposition had influenced this process and stated that the number of countries that had blocked the report had increased from four to nine, linking this development to distrust in the government.
" Good morning! First, dear citizens, I wish you once again a happy Easter, let's celebrate Easter better next time. Secondly, I am before you today because he did not hesitate even on Easter Day to deliver his deceitful monologue. Edi Rama today tried again to deceive Albanians regarding the stratospheric price of oil. The truth and once again, dear citizens, is that this government has imposed on oil the absolutely highest tax in the world. This government taxes, like no other government on the planet, 60% of the price at which oil is sold on the market and receives 1.1 euros for every liter of oil.
The movement he claims with the excise tax is a mockery. According to him, it comes into force when oil exceeds 220 Ike per liter, while halving the fiscal burden, taxes on oil, would be the only way to reduce its price and keep it at affordable levels for Albanian citizens, Albanian farmers, to keep it at controllable levels for other prices as well. Secondly, again, he blamed the blocking of the IBAR report, de facto of the negotiations with the European Union, because of the Balluku and AKSHI case, where the main author is Edi Rama, who used 83 criminal mandates to protect himself from the Balluku file. First , he tried to blame the opposition. Secondly, he denied, deceived, that there is a blocking or there is a non-voting of the IBAR report. The truth is this, dear citizens: The opposition is not the cause of the blocking of the voting on the IBAR report. The real cause is the vote with 83 criminal mandates, a shield for the corruption of Edi Rama, Lub Balluku and his family and official circle.
And I guarantee you, that this blockage will become stronger and stronger. Let's not forget that 3 weeks ago there were 4 countries, those that blocked the voting on the IBAR report. On April 1, there were no longer 4 countries, but 9 countries, a good part of which are in favor of the expansion of the European Union. So, once again, with Edi Rama, there is no integration. Edi Rama is a fierce enemy, who is replacing true integration in the European Union, with its integration with Belgrade. He is replacing the European passport, with the passport of Serbia. Finally, he also spoke about farmers, who are in a free fall and an irrepressible, unstoppable bankruptcy. The whole scheme, the whole attitude of this government towards farmers, both in the fiscal system, as well as in subsidies, and now finally in the stratospheric price of oil, is a practice of utter bankruptcy. "April 17 is the day that every citizen must show his anger, his revolt, against this government, which is doing everything to survive, to steal, to plunder, even more Albanians," Berisha said in his message.
