TIRANA, July 7 /ATA/ – Opposition leader Sali Berisha on Tuesday called for broad support for the anti-government protests that have continued in Tirana for 38 consecutive days, saying demonstrators should do “everything possible” to ensure their success.
Speaking at an event organised by the Democratic Party’s department for former political prisoners under the theme “Crime Must Not Be Forgotten,” Berisha likened the current government to a dictatorship, accusing it of undermining Albania’s future.
He also referred to the execution of dissident poet Havzi Nela under the communist regime, saying Albania could no longer witness firing squads or internment camps but arguing that, politically, the current government resembled the country’s former dictatorship.
Turning to the ongoing demonstrations, Berisha described them as a major civic and youth movement.
“We must do everything to ensure the success of this protest. Every Albanian should be prepared for the decisive battle against this regime to save Albania,” he said.
