Hoxha: Democracy Comes from Dialogue, Not Force or Intimidation

Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Ferit Hoxha commented today on last night’s protest in the capital. First, he said democracy, freedom, and rights are not given but earned through effort, sacrifice, and responsibility.

He also said they come from dialogue and wisdom, not intimidation or imposition. In addition, he referred to the protest in a social media post, contrasting peaceful civic action with what he described as disorder and confrontation.

He said citizens expressed concerns ranging from environmental protection to public debate, but he criticized the presence of violence and polarization. Furthermore, he emphasized that Albania’s future depends on building a modern, democratic, and European state.

He said the vision of “Albania 2030” and EU membership can only be achieved through work, commitment, and long-term planning. Finally, he called for unity and stressed the role of youth in building the country’s future.
