The protest of April 2, 1991 against the communist regime that ended with 4 victims in Shkodra, for Sali Berisha, should be a source of inspiration for all Albanians for the May 11 elections to elect the Democratic Party.
From Shkodra, where he honored the 4 martyrs of democracy, the democratic leader said that everyone should sacrifice their vote just like the heroes of 34 years ago who sacrificed their lives.
"They are today a source of light, a source of inspiration for every citizen who believes in freedom and their vote. The martyrs of April 2 are a great inspiration for every citizen to sacrifice for their freedom and their vote."
He sees May 11th not as an ordinary day for parliamentary elections, but a historical date that, according to him, should divide eras.
"May 11 is the day that divides history and eras, divides the dictatorship based on drugs, from the rule of law, freedoms and rights of citizens. It divides the growing poverty and misery of Albanians from the path of well-being, of their unstoppable prosperity."
The opposition leader showed confidence in victory on May 11 and stated that on that date they will sign the Albanian dream project.
"The project of Albanians out of extreme poverty. The project of Albania that produces good for its citizens in every corner."
At the end of the activity in honor of the martyrs of April 2, which was attended by parliamentary candidates and local leaders of the Democratic Party in Shkodra, Berisha also had a communication with the media where he declared that the political rotation will start from this district.
"Shkodra will give the most deserved lesson to those who thought they could trample on it."
On April 2, 1991, a protest took place in Shkodra against the results of the first pluralist elections, which at that time were won by the Labor Party, which received an overwhelming majority of votes in parliament.
Four people were killed in that protest, Arben Broci, Bujar Bishanaku, Nazmi Kryeziu and Besnik Ceka, who were later declared martyrs of democracy. The protest was the first in a series of events and strikes that later led to the collapse of the system in the elections of March 22, 1992. (A2 Televizion)
