PM Rama Calls Students’ and Lecturers’ Boycott Unacceptable, Urges Dialogue

Prime Minister Edi Rama also addressed the boycott of classes by students and lecturers during a press conference. Rama described the boycott as an unacceptable act that infringes on the freedom of those who wish to study.

The prime minister warned that amendments would be made to the relevant legislation, making it clear that freedom must not turn into arbitrary action or coercion.

“The boycott of classes is unacceptable. We will amend the relevant law. Freedom is one thing; arbitrariness and coercion against those who want to attend classes are another.

I am aware of your challenges. I do not speak the language of force, coercion or violence, and I will not negotiate with anyone over civility, the Albanian tradition of taking turns when speaking, or the norms of democratic coexistence.

Come, let us sit down wherever and whenever you want to discuss what you believe we should do more of and what I should do better for you, for the university and for Albania, if you wish.

I listened to them more than anyone else. From the very first day, their main message was: ‘No dialogue, resign.’ But I was unable to examine their ideas amid all that cacophony,” he said.
