After the protests held by the former military against the government’s
decision for giving the Military Home building to the Democratic Party
to use it as a headquarter, the Albanian Prime Minister, Sali Berisha,
threatened with the military status.
“They protested by violating the status, and that’s why all of them will lose their status. Their status will go away and their pensions will be as every other citizen, because they have a status for a special status”, Berisha declared.
As for the decision made public by Top Channel, the Prime Minister declared that they did not hide it. He said that the decision has been made public, because it could not be approved without the President’s signature.
Berisha added that the Military Home had lost all of its functions and for this the government invested 140 million ALL in a new building for the military. Just a few days after the decision was made official, a new note has been placed to the building, with its new name.
Berisha: Submit projects
During this government meeting, which is one the last ones before his mandate is over, the Albanian Prime Minister, Sali Berisha, ordered the ministers to leave to the successors all the projects that have been approved by this government.
“This is one of the last meetings, and I demand that every successor of this cabinet must have the list of all ongoing projects, because on these chairs will sit people who don’t know how to read a file, so you must take a copy and leave another copy on their tables”, Berisha declared.
Berisha mentioned the legalization process, declaring that he supports the demolition of all illegal buildings, but not the ones that have permit, without completing the expropriating procedures.
