Journalist Osmani Stafa gave a speech during the protest against Prime Minister Edi Rama, where he called on citizens to continue their stance and demands for change.
In his speech, Stafa criticized the way in which, according to him, the protesters have been characterized by the majority, stating that in the square there are young people who seek to build the future in Albania, families who want to live in their country, pensioners and citizens who seek more social support.
He also mentioned concerns about corruption, hospital conditions, and the economic difficulties of some segments of society, saying that the protesters are citizens seeking dignity and a different Albania.
"You have a prime minister who calls you crows and ravens. But who are they? Are they the youth who want to have a future in Albania? Are they the young people who want to create their families in Albania? Who are the crows and ravens? Are they the citizens who demand an end to corruption. Are they the pensioners who demand their basic right, money to buy medicine. Are they the mothers with orphaned children who cannot make ends meet? Are they the patients who go to hospitals and cannot find medicine and equipment. No, no, here are the eagles who fight for the dignity of a different Albania. They are the Eagles who demand dignity for the future. Have you seen what luxury expenses they have, what a life they live. Stand, resist, fight for your future. You are the most beautiful eagles of that flag that waves and demands that they have a future in Albania. They do not get tired of stealing, you, as the Eagles, must also stand in the square until the end", he said, among other things.
The staff called on the participants to remain in protest and continue their civic engagement, describing them as "eagles" fighting for the future of the country.
