The Democratic Party denounced what it calls the usurpation of the Municipality of Tirana by the Government. Ilir Alimehmeti, who leads the PD municipal councilors for the capital, took as an example the case of the former autotractor factory, property under the Municipality since 2017 to carry out socio-cultural and sports activities, which according to him is being hijacked by the Government to establish a weapons and ammunition factory.
"What did the Municipality of Tirana do in these 8 years? Nothing? Now, with a reprehensible act of usurping local powers, the government decides to seize the property of the Municipality of Tirana and transfer it to the Ministry of Defense for the purpose of building weapons and ammunition production factories," said the DP advisor to the Municipality of Tirana, Ilir Alimehmeti.
Alimehmeti emphasizes that the only body that can handle facilities owned by the Municipality of Tirana is the Municipal Council.
"For military purposes, there are enough facilities and terrain that can be used and that are located in more suitable areas within the territory of the Municipality of Tirana. But near the people and in residential areas, it is necessary to build nurseries, kindergartens, schools, social facilities and sports fields to support them and their families," declared Alimehmeti.
For this reason, the Democratic Party asks the Tirana Municipal Council to address this issue immediately and with priority. (A2 Televizion)
