Basha Reminds February 20: Those Who Want To Retain Power At All Costs Are The

Although 30 years have passed since the fall of the bust of Enver Hoxha, the chairman of the Democratic Party says he is convinced that the nostalgics of the evil and gloomy years of dictatorship, but also others who imitate the dictator to maintain power at all costs, are today the greatest threat to our democracy and freedom.

In a reaction on the occasion of this important day for the Albanian history, Basha guarantees that with his will and commitment he will try hard not even the most distant shadows of that infamous time to be present in our days.

"Let it be the day of the covenant to never allow the return of its shadows between us," Basha writes.

Statement of the chairman of the Democratic Party, Lulzim Basha

"30 years ago, the Albanians overthrew the statue of the most heartless dictator our history has ever seen, in a sublime act of liberation from the idolatry of the dictatorship.

February 20, 1991 was a celebration of new hope and change that was emerging after half a century of tyranny. It was the cry of the free Albanians in the soul that rang incessantly in the shouts "We want Albania like all of Europe!"

Unfortunately, in our Albania, even 30 years after the fall of the bust of the dictator, the symbols of communism and the crimes of that regime have returned to our streets and squares, to scare our three-decade effort to make Albania like all of Europe.

Not only the nostalgics of the evil and gloomy years of dictatorship, but also others who imitate the dictator to maintain power at all costs, are today the greatest threat to our democracy and freedom.

We will stop this ominous influx by returning Albania to its European path. Albania needs a stronger economy, health and greater care for all citizens, but our recent history has taught us that none of this can be achieved without guaranteeing above all freedom and democracy to behave as a European country.

I guarantee you that with my will, commitment and learning even from the mistakes of the past I will try hard so that even the most distant shadows of that infamous time are not present in our days.

February 20 is our holiday of spiritual liberation from the shameful mark of dictatorship! Let it also be the day of the covenant to never allow the return of its shadows between us. "
