In a reaction on the X social network, Rama said that the opponents do not provide even a single idea about the history and role of the Bektashi people in the destiny of the nation and our state.

Rama said that, “It is high time for this idea to be materialized and that the need for this step is not only in full harmony with our national interest, but also in the service of the necessity of our continuous investment for the preservation and enrichment of the priceless treasure of religious tolerance and harmony”.

Prime Minister Edi Rama’s full reaction:

I am used to reading and hearing surprises after every new idea or project of change that I have expressed or presented in all these years, but this time the surprises said or written after the expression of the idea of ​​creating a sovereign entity of the Bektashi Order, within perimeter of the property of the World Headquarters of the Bektashi in Tirana, have exceeded the limits of all expected fantasies and mischief.

The only thing that I have not heard voiced by the ardent opponents of this idea is even a single meaningful sentence about the history and role of the Bektashis in the destinies of our nation and state, let alone the survival challenges of the Bektashi Order today about which none of them seems to care about!

The ignorance and carelessness in dealing with a matter of such value reinforces my conviction that it is high time for this idea to be implemented and that the need for this step is not only in full harmony with our national interest, but also in service of the necessity of our continuous investment for the preservation and enrichment of the priceless treasure of religious tolerance and harmony, where Bektashism has its irreplaceable merit and role alongside the other three faiths. However, from the idea to its implementation, there is a whole time to clarify everything and a whole public and legislative process to develop, so there is no rush and no need for pointless controversy.

In the meantime, my invitation to the so many opponents of the idea is to get acquainted with the facts and historical contributions of the Bektashi Order in the affairs of the nation and religion in Albania, hoping that perhaps this knowledge will help them to see at least something so simple and yet meaningful. Unlike other communities, which have the natural advantage of belonging to very large communities with a global scope – so they also have great opportunities for uninterrupted support on their way – the Bektashi community is, so to speak, an “orphan” in this perspective.

That is why promotion of the status of the World Headquarters of the Bektashis in Albania to the level of a sovereign entity would not only significantly reduce the real threat of the shrinking of that community to dissolution in the span of several decades, but would also guarantee a stable continuity of existence for the coming generations. Addressing this issue today means protecting an extraordinary value of the historical and cultural heritage of the Albanian nation, not counting other great benefits that the creation of such a sovereign entity in the world will bring to Albania and Albanian patriotism in the troubled world where we live. Yes, we have all the necessary time ahead of us to speak wisely and calmly./p.s./
