Berisha signs in front of residents of unit 8: There will be no urbanization before legalization

Democratic Party leader Sali Berisha has stated that there will be no urbanization before legalization, after the May 11 elections.

Berisha made the comments during a meeting with residents of unit no. 8 in Tirana, where he also signed a document on this issue.

Berisha guaranteed those present that all the promises he made during the meeting will be the first acts of the DP government, if it wins the elections.

Excerpt from Berisha's speech:

Dear friends, dear leaders and candidates of the Democratic Party.

First, I would like to extend my warm greetings and express my pleasure in meeting you today to discuss with you essential issues of our program for Albanian citizens.

Jonathan came to the office yesterday and presented me with this document drafted with you to provide an answer to one of the most important problems you have and which is dragging on the calendar due to bureaucracy, corruption and other factors.

I read it, I told him that I'm signing this right now.

I told him we would go there and meet them and sign it in their presence.

I have also expressed it in other meetings, all those who have received the documents with which this government holds hostage the final legalization document and the legalization will be announced without any act, without any payment.

First.

Secondly, I guarantee the owners of the occupied land that they will be compensated at market value by the government.

Yes, we will do the right thing as it should be done.

Thirdly, there will be no urbanization before legalization. There will be legalization before urbanization.

Because with this work, they blocked the process. We will legalize it and then no one will block the path where it needs to go.

We built 11,300 kilometers of roads and in absolute terms we only had one protest at the Technological School.

I told the minister that they would be expropriated at market rates. I sat down with them and the protest stopped.

Third, the rent bonuses are ridiculous. You demolish their house, put it in a building, and give them half the rent. You'll pay the full rent at market price.

If this is done, citizens will have faith in the government and the law. First of all, they will have faith in the right not to be violated unjustly.

I guarantee you that these jointly determined points, these are signed here in front of you by Sali Berisha and will be one of the first acts of the government. (A2 Televizion)
