Justice Minister Ulsi Manja has today written a long status defending his boss Edi Rama, in the "mission" of the head of government to free public spaces. But more than concern for justice and the rule of law in the country, it seems like Manja's oath of loyalty on the eve of the formation of the new government. In a long post on social networks, he has come out in support of Rama in his effort to free Albania from "kiosks, terraces and car cemeteries". As Manja writes, this is not simply a fight to regulate the territory, but a battle of vision for Albania 2030 in the European Union. And, according to him, to enter Europe, we must definitely remove unauthorized constructions and the "roundabout".
The minister expressed this position with an outburst of enthusiasm for "many", who, according to him, thought that Edi Rama was simply on a "summer whim" with illegal constructions and "demolition of houses". Ah, how many of those who confused this with a political maneuver! However, Manja has a clear message: "In Europe, chaos, with kiosks, and with terraces of buildings turned into farms does not work". Albania must be in order, otherwise it has no chance of joining the ranks of the European Union countries.
In the same post, Manja is very clear: any criticism of these efforts is an attack on order and justice. He describes those who defend lawlessness as "merchants of chaos," who find breathing space only where there are laws that no one is following. For Manja, Rama has a "popular mandate" to lead this battle for a European Albania, and his call is simple: "Support the law or prepare to stand in the shadow of illegal builders!"
For all those who see this as political revenge and a war between the government and the citizens, Manja is adamant: "The truth is completely different. This is a war between good and evil. And in this battle, the people have spoken!" As Roman philosophy said, "Right does not arise from injustice," and, according to him, any construction without permission is simply an injustice, regardless of who did it.
In the end, he closes with a simple and direct message for those who still think they can break the law without consequences: "The Albania of 2030 is not built on roundabouts, but on justice, laws and, why not, respect for public spaces!"
