Honorable Mrs. Rosenstock-Siller,
On 20/05/2021, in the capacity of the President of LDSH, a Political Movement that represents the community of Albanians living abroad, I sent you a letter via email, regarding the elections of April 25th in Albania, where I wrote that those elections were completely IRREGULAR, asking you to arrange a meeting, with you or with the US Ambassador in Tirana, Mrs. Yuri Kim, to offer a SOLUTION to get the country out of the crisis.
I am sending that letter to you again.
But you did not answer us.
This indifference has created a very tense situation in Albania and the Albanian people are heading towards a civil war.
If you, Madam, consider the elections of April 25th in Albania regular, it means that you are not interested in democracy and the dignity of the Albanian people.
Albania has been ruled for 30 years by a corrupt and criminal political elite, which is forcing Albanians to lose faith and leave Albania. Today 1/3 of the Albanian people live abroad and this part of the population supports with remittances their families in Albania for everyday living..
Well, immigrants are (and should be) a determining factor in our country’s politics.
I wrote to you on their behalf, offering a SOLUTION that would restore normality to the country.
Do you know, Madam, that in the consciousness of Albanians is crystallizing, day by day, the idea that it is you (meaning the internationals) who are deliberately keeping in power, (by certifying the elections in Albania as “regular”) this political class, to force Albanians to leave Albania?
I do not want to believe such a thing, but the facts are stubborn, said a great German philosopher.
And to confirm what I said above, I remind you that all the reports of the American State Department classify Albania as one of the most corrupted countries in the world. Then the question that arises is: who is corrupted the people or the government? And the answer is clear, this government which has been in power for 8 years is one of the most corrupted in the world.
And the US Department of State continues to support such a government, and you see the elections of April 25th as regular (!)
Albania is really a small country, but even Albanians are people that want to live with dignity.
Do not forget that apart from the territory of the Republic of Albania, they also live in three other countries in the surrounding region, which means that a tense situation in Albania creates such a situation in the entire region, where Albanians live.
Madam, I am a writer and I love my country, even though I live outside Albania, for the reasons I wrote to you above, but you do not give me the opportunity to speak???
Where can we talk? The Albanian media is controlled from both sides of the political spectrum, which say to be the Government and the Opposition, but, in fact, cooperate only for corrupt affairs. The facts show that this opinion is not only mine but of all Albanians. So we turn to You, America, that we consider our strategic ally, but You do not listen to us?
Then what should we do?
We, Madam, are using Words, reason and you stay silent, you do not listen to us… Then how should we act, in what language should we speak for you to hear us, with the language of weapons? Once Albania was burned in ’97, it has to be burned again for you to listen to us?
Madam, PLEASE give us the opportunity of A MEETING, with you or with Mrs. Yuri Kim, or with a US State Department representative, to present our proposal TO AVOID AN EVENTUALLY CIVIL WAR, which is becoming inevitable.
If You, even after this Letter, will stay silent again, then we will take our fate into our own hands.
Awaiting your Reply, I send you my cordial regards.
With respect,
Ismet Mehmeti
