Former President of CEPA delegation, Alexander Biberaj, condemned the language used by Parliament Speaker Jozefina Topalli at the European Parliament against MEP Victor Bostinaru

“I think that this is a poor representation that damages the publicity of the Albanian politic, because we are talking about the European Parliament, a debate between the Albanian Parliament and the European Parliament”, Biberaj declared.

On Top Channel’s “Shqip”, Biberaj said that Albania should have a more dignified representation in an institution of that level.

“I think that in 2011, Albania can and should be presented with higher diplomatic levels in order to deserve the respect that Europe and the International Community gives us”, Biberaj underlined.

Speaking on the local elections, Biberaj emphasized that if standards will not be met, Albania’s road to EU will become even more difficult.

“If we do not perform these elections according to the standards, we are helping those who are sceptic about EU enlargement. And the cost of this would be paid by the Albanian people, considering that EU has shown signs of being tired of the enlargement”, said Biberaj.

However, he hoped that the Albanian political class will show responsability until May 8th, in order to close Albania’s chapter of disputed elections.
