Speaking to media ahead of a parliamentary debate, Tabaku said she had formally alerted the European Commission, EU competition authorities, the European Parliament, and the EU delegation in Tirana about what she described as violations contained in the draft law.

According to Tabaku, amendments to the bill conflict with key EU legislative chapters, including Chapters 5, 8, and 14. She said the law is part of a recurring pattern in which public assets are allocated without competition or transparency.

“This is another politically driven law, one of dozens passed to protect specific interests rather than the public good,” Tabaku said, adding that accelerated parliamentary procedures prevent proper debate and consultation.

Tabaku called on European institutions and member states to monitor legislative developments closely, stressing that EU integration requires practical implementation of standards, not just formal compliance on paper.
