Centrolevilic Prime Minister Edi Rama gave an interview to the daily The Guardian. He accused him of Great Britain, currently ruled by Keira Starmer's Labor, Fr. Searching for “places to abandon immigrants” by striving to create “return centers” from third countries. Such centers would accommodate people who were refused asylum and who have exhausted all legal paths of staying for stay.
Starmer confirmed last month that Great Britain is conducting talks with other countries about such a planbut he did not say with whom. The British prime minister announced this policy during his first official visit to Albania.
However, the frame said that Albania would not be part of the program, because “we are loyal to our marriage with Italy.” Tirana concluded a similar program with Rome, which was repeatedly suspended by legal measures.
The frame told “Guardian”: – The fact that today it is not only imaginable, but it does not follow that Keir Starmer or [Rishi] Sunak did something scandalous; This is because the country is in a very dark place.
The Albanian Prime Minister revealed that Starmer's proposals were part of “80 percent of things that are spoken, written or accepted as a normal part of the discourse in today's Great Britain” and argued that before Brexit “they would be completely unacceptable, completely funny, completely shameful”.
Under the rule of the previous conservative government of Great Britain, London and Tirana signed a joint message and formed a task group to fight illegal migrationin which over 1000 Albanians were sent from Great Britain. However, relations between the two nations were often tense due to the rhetoric of politicians who claimed that Albanians applying for asylum “invading” Great Britain. The frame said that Starmer is “a very decent, wonderful person” and explained that the British prime minister had not submitted a public request to join Albania to the program.
