As the Assembly restarts today, the Minister of State for Relations with the Parliament, Elisa Spiropali, has invited the opposition to vote on the amnesty bill.
In a public reaction on social networks, Spiropali calls the opposition's colleagues "lambs that are worth more than its lions".
Among other things, Spiropali writes that the draft law has not yet been voted on even though there have been "quick" parliamentary sessions, and states that "isolation and punishment are not the goal in itself of criminal policy."
Spiropali emphasizes, among other things, that opposition MPs are welcome to vote for the law, calling the vote a political act and emancipation.
" For the lambs of the opposition that are worth more than its lions.
Mother Teresa, the great Albanian, has a lapidary saying, which in this troubled time is even more significant.
Mother Teresa prays to do small things, but with 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 "send 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 goal 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! "- writes Spiropali.
