Ed, does Albanian politics seem like a small amphitheater for his extraordinary political acting? Too many bushes, but where does the rabbit 'sleep'?
Don't laugh, please! It's not a comedy!
It is spiritual, ideological and political confusion for all Albanians.
It is not that this confusion was created by Edi Rama, he only muddied the water, ie the concept. The Albanian Prime Minister, currently, with his "European" tour, has decided to visit and mobilize the diaspora.
Like the Prime Minister of Kosovo who had visited the Albanians of North Macedonia, whom he, unlike Rama, does not call diaspora. We are calling Kurti the Kosovar Prime Minister, to distinguish him from Edi, because he is also Albanian. But it is clear to all of us that it is not just a matter of language. It is a matter of concepts of geopolitics and the alignment of ideologies that the two leaders represent in larger conjunctures.
So, the visit to the Albanian diaspora in Greece may seem like a campaign, but what is he campaigning for, Edi?
Is it running away from domestic politics and offering itself to European and Euro-Atlantic diplomacy? Did he think it himself or was it suggested to him from outside as an exit through the big door from Albanian politics or maybe to him, Albanian politics seems like a small amphitheater for his extraordinary political acting? Too many bushes, but where does the rabbit 'sleep'?
His visit to Greece was undoubtedly a spectacle, his promotion as a leader of the Albanian diaspora in Europe. I am talking about the visit to Albanian Greece. Or Greek Albanians, as you like.
Seeing the hall full of red and black flags, the Greek Prime Minister may have said to himself, who is the Prime Minister here?
Likewise, the Albanian Minister, in her speech, talked about the time when it was common to speak Albanian in Athens. But we are not talking about this rabbit. Not even for this bush...then there may be neither bush nor rabbit. It can only be a manifestation of the new spiritual design of the diaspora, otherwise one of the strengths of the Kosovar Prime Minister. But do Arvanites and Chams also enter the diaspora? What about the autochthonous Albanians of the Western Balkans?
Edi will probably also go to North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, but will he come to Kosovo? Is Kosovo an Albanian diaspora or one of the two Albanian states? Is Kosovo a diaspora or a state of Albanians and others?
If Kurti participates in the Albanian elections, can Rama also participate in the Kosovar ones that are expected to be announced soon?
It is clear that Kosovo is not defined by the constitution as a state of the Albanian people even though the Albanians are the majority community. If it is the second, can Kurti, who recently has not been sharing thoughts and ideas with Mr. Rama about the diaspora, go on a journey through the diaspora?
Is Albania Kurti's diaspora?
In which diaspora will I go?
If he goes to Macedonia, who will Rama, Kurti invite to the gathering? Who is the father of the nation? Who is the nation? Then, diaspora does not mean ethnic territories with autochthonous Albanian inhabitants. So this could be the rabbit? Isn't it an attempt to oppose the idea of ethnic Albania with the idea of a European, say, planetary Albania?
Let Kurt take the ethnic territories, I'm taking the diaspora, this could be Rama's idea.
Along with the idea of national unification, Kurt also left the enemies of this idea at the door, who used to accuse political Albania of Greater Albania. What confused us all, along with the modification of ethnic Albania in European Albania, the main "enemy" of "Greater Albania" also modified its accusation. He accused Kurti of being committed to Greater Kosovo. Today, the idea of Greater Kosovo serves Serbian clerical-nationalism much better, to move the internal borders of the former Yugoslavia, which Serbian politics tries to restore in any possible form. But the idea of Greater Albania, with which the idea and the idea of Greater Serbia were justified, did not give the expected results, as it affected much more strategic conjunctures than what Serbia intended and could control.
Promoting the project of European Albania through the diaspora, instead of an internal failure that caused the people to flee abroad (this also applies to Kosovo), is a rhetorical and media effort to turn the population's flight into a contribution of Albanians to Europe.
Ed can't do more than that with his rhetoric. Maybe when this idea also fails, or when it turns into a war with ethnic territories, then it will promote the idea of virtual Albania. There will be no enemies, no accusations. The end of an internet republic no one needs to know./ Pamphlet
