Sali Berisha, right -wing experienced

Sali Berisha, a political veteran who symbolizes the decline of communism, is expecting to return to power after 12 years in protest.The country’s first non-commercial president and a former Prime Minister, he became the leader of the right-wing opposition in 2022, joined the army with more than 20 parties in the hope of excluding Ram from power.The 80 -year -old is promising an “great albania” with an election manifesto based on the economic revival of the country similar to Donald Trump in the United States.From 2005 to 2013, as Prime Minister, Berisha, a cardiologist by training, stepped as the head of the Democratic Party, which he founded. He made his close aide Lulzim Basha his successor but the pair fell out.For the campaign, Berisha engaged American political advisor Chris Lacivita, assuring that he would be a architect of his return to power.Lacivita, co-manager of Trump’s campaign, was standing next to Berisha at every election rally.Addressing the crowd in English, Lacivita argued that “the future for Albania is only for Berisha to be the Prime Minister”.Berisha has been banned from entering the United States and Britain due to alleged involvement in organized crime and corruption, He is also being prosecuted in Albania for “passive corruption”.But Berisha repeatedly dismissed the allegations against him as he was politically motivated and accused Ram of following him.Berisha’s opponents see him as a representative of a corrupt political system and is responsible for the 1997 chaos, when more than 2,000 were killed in an armed rebellion. The unrest was launched by the collapse of a fraudulent pyramid investment scheme, which he allowed to flourish.
