Prime Minister Edi Rama declared on Monday that the election of the provisional chief prosecutor Arta Markuwas done in conformity with the laws in vigor. Thus, in a press conference he considered the opposition's protest shameful.
"I did everything within my possibilities to open the dialogue with opposition in relation to this issue but even the appeal by USA and EU to find a compromise solution failed to bring the opposition in the dialogue�s roundtable," said Rama.
He added that judicial reform is an unstoppable process that can�t be obstructed through shouts and gas canisters by the opposition.
�This shameful show was orchestrated by the opposition while the country will suffer the consequences. Albanians do not deserve the mud and despair of an opposition guided by the fear from judicial reform. I want to ask for forgiveness by the Albanian citizens and international partners for the latest despaired attempt by the opposition to block judicial reform," said Rama.
From the other side, he thanked the former-chief prosecutor Adriatik Llalla for his contribution and the fact that he became the first to leave this office without a single conflict with the majority.
