Albanians, after decades of turmoil, finally found balance: at the head of the government, Professor Pilinci – a mind that mixes between Hegel and Hamzë Kazazi, and at the head of the Parliament, Dimal Basha – a tribune of modern times, equipped with the subtle tongue of irony and a dangerous dose of enthusiasm.
Professor Pilinci, at the first government meeting, replaced the word “program” with “manifesto.” Instead of a budget, he proposed a “metaphysical construct of future well-being,” convincing the people that paying for electricity is not a crisis, but an “ontological challenge.” He turns every question from journalists into a philosophy lecture, making sure that no one understands, but everyone shakes their heads for fear of appearing ignorant.
On the other hand, the Albanian Parliament under Dimal Basha is more like an ancient academy. His gavel does not fall to stop the chaos, but to give rhythm – an absurd music, where every political debate sounds like Aeschylus’ tragic chorus mixed with Juvenal’s satire. The deputies speak, but at the end Dimal Basha reminds them: “You are not debating about the law, but about the immortality of the soul of this nation.”
