Opposition MP, at the same time the head of PBDNJ, Vangjel Dule had called today in an interpellation in the Assembly Prime Minister Edi Rama on the issue of respect for minority rights. Rama refused to speak and delegated it to Minister Elisa Spiropali. Dule expressed his indignation and refused to conduct the interpellation with Spiropali. 

"The time limit for the development of the interpellation within 3 weeks is not respected, I was informed this morning that the Prime minister did not prefer to talk about these issues and has delegated it. This is a cynical way. The current position of the Prime Minister proves that for him the respect of minority rights and freedoms does not exist in his agenda and priorities. Fortunately, it is on the EU agenda. The day before yesterday we did not get a date for the first intergovernmental conference that I wish we would get soon, but we had clear conclusions. Among them were those related to the rights of members of minorities. I regret not accepting the development of this interpellation. If you have the understanding, move it to another favorable date with the prime minister, if not I will resubmit the request", declared Dule.
