Sali Berisha is in line with Prime Minister Edi Rama regarding the increase in judges' salaries, an issue on which the Constitutional Court is expected to rule.
After the prime minister, who criticized the judges' request in the early hours of this morning, it was the turn of the leader of the Democratic Party, Sali Berisha, who did not leave it without commenting after leaving SPAK, where he appeared in the implementation of the measure for the "Partizani" case.
The chief democrat emphasized that raising salaries is the competence of the executive branch, but according to him, as long as the "pyramid" of the system is broken, the court can intervene.
But the issue of judges' salaries seems to be used by the two main political actors to attack the justice institutions with which they have been in conflict for months. Rama to deliver the next message to the Constitutional Court, while Berisha to once again attack SPAK and prosecutor Altin Dumani.
"The pyramid provides for the highest salary for the head of state, the pyramid has a scale. If the executive has signed for his own black page, for Altin Troplini to be the highest paid man in the justice system from the border of Slovenia and Austria to Cyprus, then he has not made a salary pyramid in accordance with the spirit of the Constitution and the law, but a pyramid with his personal interests. Indeed, it is the competence of the executive, but he is obliged to exercise it in accordance with the principle," said Berisha.
The similarity of the statements of the prime minister and the opposition leader suggests that the goal is to send messages to justice and not that they are concerned about a decision of the Constitutional Court in favor of a salary increase. Because political history has shown us that when these characters disagree with a decision of the Constitutional Court, they do not implement it without batting an eyelid.
