Albanian Prime Minister Salji Berisa stated that he does not intend to resign, and that the opposition will face a harsh response in case it tries to take over the country violently.
Berisa accused Albania's main opposition Socialist leader Edi Rama of trying to take over the power violently by organizing groups of gangsters, murderers and criminals who attempted to enter the government building on force during Friday demonstrations.
I advise Rama not to try anything similar again, because next time he will face a harsh response, Berisa pointed out, but he did not explain what a harsh response practically means, except that it would be in accordance with Albanian laws.
Rama appealed to the international community to mediate in the country's political crisis, while pledging to lead new anti-government protests after riots last week.
The opposition is trying to reach the world's ears and say clearly do not let us alone, Edi Rama told the Associated Press Monday.
He also said Prime Minister Sali Berisha went out of control after three people died during Tirana protests last Friday.
According to the AP, Berisha rejected opposition’s requests to resign after they accused him of corruption and both parties – Socialists and ruling Democrats, announced new rallies this week.
