The Indoor Olympic Gymnasium in Galatsi was full of people both inside and outside early this morning, where a rally was organized with Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama as the main speaker, as part of his party’s election campaign for the 2025 parliamentary elections with an audience of immigrants. from the neighboring country who live and work in Greece.
The rally started an hour late due to Rama’s arrival an hour later than scheduled and ELAS took strict security measures. It is estimated that more than 1,000 police officers are on foot, in a political event that has caused political confrontations.
Edi Rama is accompanied by about 150 persons, members of the cabinet, parliamentarians and journalists from the neighboring country, while the stadium of Galatsi was filled with friends and members of the party.
The event was opened by singer Noisey and Era Rousey, and there were eight other speeches before Rama’s.
Rama, starting his speech, said that “I have not come to provoke, I have come to speak to my people”, to loud applause.
On a different wavelength Government – Beleris
Referring to the nature of today’s event, government spokesman Pavlos Marinakis, on Thursday, described Rama’s visit as “private” and noted that the government was informed on Tuesday. It was preceded by the position of Kyriakos Mitsotakis, according to which the government will neither prohibit nor facilitate any gathering.
Today, however, the ND MEP candidate Fredis Beleris accused Rama of provocation and show of force. In other words, it is obvious that Mayor Heimaras follows a different “line” from that of the government and does not treat Rama’s presence in Galatsi as “private”.
“He wants to provoke Greece, make a show of strength inside Albania and lower the morale of the Greeks in the region. He won’t make it. With the pride and dignity of Hellenism, no one can play” states the message of Fr. Beleri from the prisons of Albania.
