Prime Minister Edi Rama and Interior Minister Ervin Demo are holding a meeting with State Police leaders and officers, following the tensions of the previous day. In his speech, Demo focused on the events near Police Station No. 3, stating that the attack on the building and police officers had crossed, according to him, the "red line".
"Commissariat No. 3 was attacked by protesters. The building and the employees who were protecting it were damaged," the minister said.
Demo stated that the level of violence recorded, according to him, had exceeded the limits of a normal protest. He also claimed that people involved in the clashes had found shelter in the headquarters of a political entity, which according to him also indicates their motivation.
"Violence has no place in a democratic society. The government and the prime minister have made it clear that we are ready for dialogue, but violence cannot be accepted," Demo declared.
