The absence of the National Anthem at the activity held in Pustec, the Foreign

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has reacted by expressing regret over the absence of the National Anthem at an event in Pustec, which was also attended by the Prime Minister of North Macedonia. Through a reaction, the MFA emphasizes that, although the event was organized by a local association, the presence of high-ranking institutional representatives and local elected officials gave the event a special public dimension.

According to the ministry, the non-inclusion of the Albanian National Anthem constitutes a serious omission and a deviation from the rules of protocol and institutional etiquette. "Respect for national symbols should not be a matter of politics or interpretation. It is part of institutional ethics, protocol and above all mutual respect, especially in a space where different communities and identities coexist," the Foreign Ministry's response states, among other things.

Andi Bushati: An autumn with an end-of-regime atmosphere

Whether it's his own party's own dice that throw him a punch, whether it's citizens who boo him in the street, whether it's the brave SPAK prosecutors who have gotten close to his throat, or international journalists who compare him to the godfather, one thing shows that Edi Rama's political curve has reached its end. His propaganda narrative is already over.

Blendi Kajsiu: Prime Minister's misunderstanding on anti-corruption

The fact that no institution of our public administration noticed that millions of euros were invested in phantom incinerators, that AKSHI was controlled by an ordinary criminal, that the directors of the Municipality of Tirana awarded tenders to themselves, or that the police director and the director of SHISH worked for Gysi, shows that we do not have a public administration and a state.
