Prime Minister Edi Rama was in Fier, in southwestern Albania, today, as part of advisory meetings with parents on the restrictions of social networks such as TikTok and Snapchat.
He told parents among other things, that “if they give a child a cell phone, they have given him a rogue as a friend”.
Rama: “When they give a child a phone, they have given him a street friend, a rogue, I may be exaggerating a bit but I use these social networks because of my duty like everyone else because I can’t avoid it, but when I see they are in the hands of children and teenagers, it’s just like a walk with that neighborhood rogue y the side. Tik Tok is in China, it is also in the Western world, but the platform does not feed the same codes and algorithms. It is definitely used for state propaganda.”
He further added that the world reflected on social networks brings the most negative examples for children.
“The daily storm of news, most of which are half-truths, a huge mass of people arguing and fighting with each other. The debate that should have at least some communication ethics, is also reflected negatively from the parliament hall in the current heated atmosphere, which is a distorted mirror of reality”, Rama added.
