Romania Mulls ‘Legal Bribes’ to Stem Doctors’ Exodus

Only a few hundred of the doctors now working at the country’s public hospitals are aged 30 or younger.

7 October 2015

Faced with an exodus of qualified medical professionals, Romanian authorities are considering novel ways to entice them to stay, which range from wage hikes to legalized extra payments, the Washington Times writes.

The debate surrounding the additional payments – which some consider legalized bribes – started in June, when the Supreme Court ruled that doctors and other medical staff are liable for legal punishment if they accept “additional contributions” from patients, Puterea writes.

The latest legislative proposals would legalize these payments as additional fees, agreed upon by doctors and hospital management, that “would enable doctors who want to work more to also gain extra money,” Health Minister Nicolae Banicioiu said. Doctors will also be taxed on the extra income, Puterea notes.

Starting 1 October, Romanian doctors’ salaries rose by 25 percent, Romaniatv.net writes. But that will not be enough to the exodus as long as the state “invests in the education of young doctors, but, after graduation, offers them no attractive perspectives to continue working in the country,” President Klaus Iohannis said, according to EurActiv.

“Without medical infrastructure, without fair and efficient management of public money, without respect for experienced professionals, and without opportunities for young doctors and nurses, an additional 20 or 50 percent [salary increase] will not solve the problem,” he added.

• On average, Romanian doctors earn $369 per month, slightly below the average salary, the Washington Times writes.

• According to the Romanian College of Physicians, last year 2,450 doctors left the country to work abroad. That year, there were 13,521 doctors working in hospitals, down from 20,648 in 2011 and 14,487 in 2013 –  just over half of the 26,000 that Romania needs.

• Of the doctors currently working, 2,961 are over 60, while only 407 are younger than 30, the College says. Another proposed law would force medical graduates whose school taxes were covered by the state to work for a number of years in Romanian hospitals, Stirileprotv.ro writes.

• Hospitals are struggling not only with understaffing but also steep budget cuts that in some cases force doctors to buy hospital supplies with their own money.

Banana Republic: Puppet Prosecutor Picks Zaev’s Attorney Godfather on her Team

Saturday, 10 October 2015

After Washington and Brussels‘ puppet Katica Janeva was illegally installed as Macedonia’s „public prosecutor“, she had just nominated the godfather of SDSM and Zaev’s personal attorney Filip Medarski as her top prosecutor. That man is Gavril Bubevski. Bubevski will prosecute, while his friend and godfather Medarski will defend Zaev!   It’s become obvious that Gruevski gave up on defending the Macedonian constitution after the terrorist attack in Kumanovo which has been widely reported to have been organized by the US base Bondsteel in Kosovo with logistical support from the Embassy in Skopje.   The Macedonian Government agreement to illegally install Katica Janeva, a woman paid for and bought by the US and British Embassies in Macedonia magnifies the travesty that the Government has agreed to, making it an accomplice in this anti-constitutional move.   As MINA has reported on at least dozen occasions, Katica Janeva’s main job is to remove the evidence of CIA’s and British involvement into the coup, illegal wiretapping of Macedonian officials and the Kumanovo incident. Macedonian Government officials as well as the original prosecutors have truck loads of evidence of the involvement by the US and UK Embassies in their attempts to remove Gruevski from power.   Katica Janeva is incredibly arrogant during press conferences (just like Zaev) which is typical when you’re installed in power by someone else. Janeva will perhaps charge Zaev with corruption as to not make it obvious that the entire trial is one big charade.  All of the other charges which in most countries would earn the SDSM leader the death penalty will be dropped. The British Ambassador (Charles Garret), Zaev’s handler during the coup did promise Zaev „we got your back“, and it sure seems like they do.   It remains to be seen whether Katica Janeva will nominate Zaev’s father or Sekerinska to be on the prosecution team, as her next choices. Gruevski started strong, but has since disappeared, it looks like he will end up the Prime Minister of a Banana Republic. //Gorazd Velkovski

“CEZ” scandal, Minister of Energy and General State Advocate in Albania indicted

By Albanian Correspondent / 14/10/2015 / No Comments

It seems that there’s more trouble on store for state authorities. HSA warns: “We stress that in these two audits, HSA has only audited the process of the holding of negotiations, the activity of the Work Group and the government’s orientation to settle the dispute amicably and not send it to the Parliament of Albania for approval”, implying that the “storm” will continue.

Gjiknuri’s indictment comes a few days after the minister pressed charges against the minister and vice minister of Economy in Berisha’s governing cabinet, Florion Mima and Enno Bozdo.

Tirana, 14 October 2015/Independent Balkan News Agency

By Edison Kurani

High State Audit in Albania indicts the Minister of Energy and Industry and the General State Advocate, accusing them of damage to the state amounting to a value of 479 million euros.

This is the first time that a state institution in Albania presses criminal charges against a minister.

The CEZ affair had never been admitted by the government and the agreement with the Czechs was considered as a very good solution, but the opposition and experts claimed that this as an abusive and unacceptable agreement.

HSA spokesman, Bedri Çoku told IBNA that “the financial damage caused to the State Budget from the Amicable Settlement Agreement between the Republic of Albania and CEZ a.s amounts to a value of 479 million euros”.

This financial damage also includes an amount of 95 million euros: the payment agreed in the Settlement; 352 million euros: financial arrears as a result of poor management from 2009 until 2012 and the value of 32 million euros: depreciation to a value of zero of the 24% of shares held by the state.

Today’s criminal indictment followed HSA audit at the Ministry of Energy and Industry (MEI) and State Advocacy (SA).

The main issue in these two audits involved the procedures followed and the negotiations that led to the drafting of the signed agreement by the Work Group set up by Rama government for an amicable settlement of the dispute between the Albanian State and CEZ a.s on 23.06.2014 and the submission of this agreement to the Council of Ministers and the Parliament of Albania for approval.

This audit concluded that the financial damage caused to the company OSHEE sh.a which is now entirely state owned, is 479 million euros.

HSA says that this damage doesn’t include the extra costs that will be paid by the Albanian State for the revitalization of the energy system and for a comeback of this public enterprise to normal parameters.

Based on the violations that have been identified, which caused a damage of 479 million euros, HSA has submitted to the Prosecution criminal charges for the Minister of Energy and Industry, Damian Gjiknuri and General State Advocate, Alma Hicka, on the count of abuse in the line of duty. According to the law, this charge receives a prison sentence of up to seven years and 7 thousand euros in fines.

HSA declared that when CEZ was abandoned by the Czechs, it was on the verge of bankruptcy. “Had it declared bankruptcy, no amount from the invested sum would be recovered by CEZ a.s, while with the settlement agreement, the risk of bankruptcy was entirely passed on to the Albanian State, which paid to assume the risk. Thus, not only did we inherit a bankrupted company, but we also paid money to assume losses and arrears”, HSA underlines.

***

On 11 March 2009, an agreement was signed for the sale of 76% of shares between the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Energy as holder of the shares and CEZ a.s as buyer and strategic investor. Following numerous problems throughout the years, ERE (Power Regulatory Authority) announced on 11 April 2012 the start of a process of audit for the financial state of CEZ Distribution sh.a.

According to ERE, the critical situation was caused by making excess expenses and mismanagement, a number of unsuccessful negotiations for possible solutions of the situation and in circumstances when CEZ Distribution announced that “the company may not be able to prevent the deterioration of the level of services that it offers in the weeks to come, including the supply with electric power”, thus declaring that it had failed in meeting its objectives.

Based on these circumstances, ERE concluded that CEZ Distribution sh.a was in violation of the RPS and DSO licenses and that this was the reason why it lifted the license to the Czechs and decided to the transfer CEZ Distribution sh.a into temporary administration.

On 15 May 2013, CEZ a.s based in Prague decided to start a lawsuit against the Albanian State at the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law, with a number of legal and financial claims, once its license was lifted and after it was transferred for temporary administration.

On 4 September 2013, the Ministry of Energy selected BDO LLP as a financial expert to make the financial evaluation of the claims relating to CEZ a.s and entered a contract with this company at a value of 300 thousand euros. As far as technical losses are concerned, a Germany company was contracted at a value of around 200 thousand euros.

The strategy that was built to handle the lawsuit launched by CEZ a.s against the Albanian state and the actions of state institutions, took another turn, as the Council of Ministers decided on 25 October 2013 to start negotiations for the settlement of the dispute, with the involvement of Gjiknuri and Hicka and several other ministers and officials.

The pact was signed by Gjiknuri on 23 June 2014. This pact was then approved by the Parliament of Albania.

This is where other problems for state authorities will emerge.

HSA warns: “We stress that in these two audits, HSA has only audited the process of the holding of negotiations, the activity of the Work Group and the government’s orientation to settle the dispute amicably and not send it to the Parliament of Albania for approval”, implying that the “storm” will continue.

Gjiknuri’s indictment comes a few days after the minister pressed charges against the minister and vice minister of Economy in Berisha’s governing cabinet, Florion Mima and Enno Bozdo. /ibna/

Der Vergleich von Cherie Blair, die keinerlei ERfahrung in solchen Abitrage Verfahren hat, wird stark kritisiert, weil es die Schulden, Verbindlichkeiten der CEZ ignorierte, wo insgesamt der Schaden über 400 Millionen € allein beträgt.

Montenegro Hosts NATO Amid Protests

NATO visit to Podgorica sparks Serb protest, while opposition leaders call for military alliance chief to visit ongoing anti-government demonstrations.

NATO officials were greeted with protests and an invitation to visit anti-government demonstrators during a high-level visit to the Montenegrin capital on Wednesday.

Members of the alliance’s top political body, the North Atlantic Council, NAC, and NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg were visiting Podgorica to assess how much progress the Balkan state has made in implementing reforms ahead of potentially joining NATO.

Several dozen anti-NATO activists rallied outside the government’s official residence in Podgorica on Wednesday to protest against joining the military alliance. Many were carrying banners bearing the slogan ‘No to war, No to NATO’.

They are calling on the government to abandon plans to join NATO, which Podgorica defined as a foreign policy priority back in 2006.

Opinions about NATO membership remain hotly divided in Montenegro. Many of the country’s sizeable Serbian community remain angry over NATO’s bombing campaign in Serbia during the 1990s that was aimed at forcing Belgrade to withdraw from Kosovo.

Several opposition politicians, mostly from pro-Serbian parties, joined the anti-NATO rally. Protesters sang famous Russian songs and carried banners declaring that ‘Kosovo is the heart of Serbia’. Pro-Serb party leaders called on people to never forget the victims of the NATO bombings.

During the visit, NAC representatives urged Montenegro to continue implementing a series of reforms ahead of a final decision due by the end of the year on whether to invite the country to join NATO.

„Montenegro needs to continue reforms in key areas, so member states can make the decision by the end of the year on the basis of the achieved results,“ Stoltenberg said during Wednesday’s talks with the Montenegrin President Filip Vujanovic.

‘Visit anti-government protesters’

Meanwhile, opposition leaders who have been coordinating anti-government protests across Montenegro during the past three weeks have called on NATO chief Stoltenberg to visit demonstrators “to get a real insight” into security and legal issues in the country.

The Democratic Front, an alliance of opposition parties, has called for Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic’s administration to step down and hold an early election, amid allegations of electoral fraud and corruption at government level.

„We have no information whether Stoltenberg will accept our invitation, but it would be an opportunity for him to hear relevant facts about the rule of law, the fight against organised crime and corruption, and the ongoing political crisis in Montenegro,“ Nebojsa Medojevic, a Democratic Front leader, told BIRN on Wednesday.

NAC members and Stoltenberg were in the capital to assess whether the country has done enough in reforming the security sector to warrant receiving a membership invite. As the alliance’s top political body, the visit by NAC is considered the most important since 2006, when Montenegro joined NATO’s Partnership for Peace programme.

Vujanovic’s cabinet put out a statement on Wednesday quoting Stoltenberg as saying the current reforms implemented in Montenegro will ensure the country reaches NATO standards and that progress is „encouraging“.

The United States has already signalled its support for the accession of the tiny Adriatic country, that has a total population of around 620,000 people.

Washington’s NATO envoy, Douglas Lute, said on Wednesday there was an „emerging consensus“ among NATO’s 28 members, while stressing an invitation would depend on Montenegro making further progress on reforms to tackle corruption, improve the rule of law, and ensure public support for membership.

The government said it was optimistic that it will be invited to join the Western military alliance in December but admitted public opinion still did not support membership and that the anti-NATO campaign was likely to intensify in the weeks to come.

NAC officials and Stoltenberg are expected to meet Montenegrin lawmakers on Thursday, but the Democratic Front has refused to attend because it is boycotting parliamentary work until the government responds to protesters’ demands.

Ambassadors Demand Action From Macedonia PM

Skopje

Macedonian PM Nikola Gruevski | Photo by: MIA

The ambassadors of the US, Britain, France, Germany, Italy and the European Union, in a joint statement on Tuesday urged Nikola Gruevski’s VMRO DPMNE party to urgently implement several key reforms that they agreed this summer.

„Late Friday night, we met with Prime Minister Gruevski and expressed our disappointment at the failure to meet the October 20 deadline agreed to in the July 15 Przino Agreement for the exchange of ministers,“ the statement said.

The warning came after the government and opposition at EU-mediated talks missed the October 20 deadline to appoint new opposition ministers to the government.

The parties previously missed the deadline for a package of urgent electoral reforms to ensure free and fair early elections in April.

They also failed to enable the Special Prosecutor to start probing the illegal surveillance cases on which the entire crisis in Macedonia centres.

„We urge VMRO-DPMNE to demonstrate the required commitment and to implement the agreement in a constructive and urgent manner and with good faith,“ the ambassadors said.

They called on Gruevski „to empower his team to finalise agreement on the unresolved issues in the Przino Agreement and implement the necessary reforms quickly.“

They also urged Gruevski to give all necessary resources to the Special Prosecutor, whose team of 14 deputies has still not formally been approved.

Failure to act with „absolute urgency that the situation demands,“ the ambassadors continued, „will impact [on] the assessment by the European Commission“, which is due to publish its annual progress report on Macedonia next week.

„Governments, and especially their heads, have a special responsibility in times of political crisis“, the ambassadors pointed out.

This message reached Gruevski when he was out of the country, however. He is yet to return from his business visit to the United Arab Emirates.

The ambassadors also called on the opposition Social Democrats, who recently threatened to release more compromising wiretaps of official conversations, to stick to the agreement and refrain from such acts.

The talks on urgent reforms are part of the EU-brokered political deal reached this summer aimed at ending the crisis in Macedonia over the unlawful mass surveillance allegations.

The opposition claims the covertly recorded tapes that it has been releasing since February show that Gruevski was behind the illegal surveillance of some 20,000 people, including ministers.

Gruevski, who has held power since 2006, insists the tapes were “fabricated” by unnamed foreign intelligence services and given to the opposition to destabilise the country.

Last week, EU mediator Peter Vanhoutte said that the EU-brokered crisis deal would be dead – and Macedonia could find itself as isolated as Belarus – if leaders failed to agree on the key reforms.

PES Budapest 2015: Ganster Treffen der Korruption: Zoran Zaev Ma

Monday, 19 October 2015

A Turkish – Macedonian owned corporation Euro Bink is the new owner of the large, Communist era brick factory Kiro Kucuk in Veles. A majority of shareholders in the bankrupt factory voted on Monday to accept the offer of about a million EUR, in what was the last chance to sell the company as a whole. Aco Petrov, the liquidation manager of Kiro Kucuk, said that the new owners have paid 10 percent of the total price on Monday, and will pay the remainder witinin 15 days. The factory has been in liquidation for two and half years, and it comes saddled with debt of about five million EUR. The company was involved in political controversy, as the family of opposition SDSM leader Zoran Zaev is a major shareholder. The ruling VMRO-DPMNE party has accused Zaev of deliberately bringing the company down, as it is a competitor to another brick factory he owns. Zaev has responded with counter-accusations that VMRO-DPMNE wants to see Kiro Kucuk remain in liquidation, to damage his stake in it.

Apa Nova managers also charged with tax evasion in corruption scandal in Romania

Romania’s anticorruption prosecutors have added new tax evasion charges against the managers of Apa Nova, a company owned by French group Veolia, which manages the water supply and sewage systems in Bucharest.

Apa Nova has been involved in the past weeks in one of the biggest corporate corruption scandals in Romania, after the prosecutors found that the company’s managers bribed local officials to allow the company to increase the tap water price in Bucharest.

The company’s current and former directors, including French expats Laurent Lalague and Bruno Roche, also allegedly recorded fictitious invoices to lower the Apa Nova’s official profit and avoid paying some EUR 5.5 million in taxes, according to the National Anticorruption Directorate (DNA)……………………..

Read more.

Tiberiu Urdareanu, one of the most powerful Romanian businessmen, was brought in for questioning at the National Anticorruption Directorate – DNA’s headquarters on Thursday, October 29. He will have to answer to the prosecutors’ questions in a corruption case, but it is yet uncertain if he’s a suspect or just a witness in the case.

Tiberiu Urdareanu owns the UTI group of companies, one of the biggest players in the local IT&C and security market. Throughout the years, UTI has been awarded tens of important contracts by various state authorities and state-owned companies, according to Mediafax.

UTI has developed the electronic healthcare record system, the road vignette payment system, the electronic system for public acquisitions (SEAP), the Bucharest public transport card payment system, and many other projects. The group has also developed Bucharest’s fiberoptics network Netcity and is working on the electronic systems for Bucharest’s newest subway line (M5 to Drumul Taberei), and the airports in Iasi, Bacau, and Satu Mare.

The group has a turnover of EUR 130 million and over 2,000 employees. It also has operations in Bulgaria, Poland, Italy, Azerbaijan, and targets the market in Albania, according to an interview Urdareanu gave to local Ziarul Financiar earlier this week.

Tiberiu Urdareanu is a member of the National Union for Romania’s Progress (UNPR), a political party led by deputy Prime Minister Gabriel Oprea.

His appointment in March 2014 as Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Crimean Federal District, essentially the Kremlin’s top man in Crimea, reintroduced him to the Western world, which moved quickly to add him to European Union (EU) and US sanction lists of persons responsible for the Ukrainian crisis.

Reporters for Novaya Gazeta and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) spent months investigating the new envoy’s other career — his international businesses built on Russia’s humanitarian programs all over the world, from Nicaragua to North Korea.

Belaventsev could be the poster boy for the phrase, “Doing well by doing good.”

His private companies, founded while he was heading the state agency responsible for humanitarian efforts, have won contracts to implement numerous Russian humanitarian projects abroad in recent years.

A legal expert says that at the very least, such a close connection appears to be a conflict of interest. Belaventsev and his partners have denied any wrongdoing in their written responses to OCCRP.

Belaventsev’s companies also prospered inside of Russia. He established a joint business to produce firefighting vehicles with Rosenbauer, a major fire-truck manufacturer and one of the biggest companies in Austria. This venture was previously connected to a controversial Russian businessman who US officials have said is associated with organized crime.

According to OCCRP’s calculations, this company, along with others owned by Belaventsev, received hundreds of millions of dollars in state contracts from different government agencies where he worked.

His companies have also picked up business from the war in southeast Ukraine: the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations is buying food from Belaventsev’s companies for humanitarian convoys which go to the rebel-held area of Donbas along the eastern border with Russia.

Shady international cooperation

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Belaventsev became the deputy head of the main Russian arms trader, Rosvooruzhenie. At that time he held the rank of vice-admiral of the Russian Navy.

In 2001, Belaventsev moved into a new arena, taking the helm at Emercom, the Agency for Support and Coordination of Russian Participation in International Humanitarian Operations at the Ministry for Emergency Situations. He held that post for the next 11 years. Emercom is not well known in the public domain even in Russia, because its operations are usually presented as projects of the Ministry for Emergency Situations. Nevertheless Emercom is one of Russia’s most important organizations because it manages all Russian humanitarian programs abroad.

Since Belaventsev was appointed head of the agency, his career has closely tracked that of Sergey Shoigu, who was Minister of Emergency Situations from 1991-2012 and is now Minister of Defense.

For more than a decade, Belaventsev served under Shoigu at the Ministry of Emergency Situations as director of Emercom, which was created in 1996 to respond to natural disasters in Russia and abroad, and provide humanitarian assistance and demining services. Emercom has also been in charge of humanitarian convoys for Donbas since the start of the war in Ukraine.

In 2012, Shoigu for a short period became the governor of the Moscow region, and Belaventsev moved with him to lead the General Affairs Department of the Moscow Region Governor and Moscow Region Government.

Later that year, Shoigu was appointed Minister of Defense, and Belaventsev accompanied him once again to take up the post of general director of Slavyanka, one of the largest companies controlled by the ministry. Three senior officials from Crimea, who requested anonymity, told OCCRP that it was Shoigu who advised Putin to appoint Belaventsev as his envoy to Crimea.

It was during his time at Emercom, however, that Belaventsev laid the groundwork for what would become a lucrative business empire. Most of Emercom’s humanitarian projects abroad are conducted in cooperation with the International Civil Defense Organization (ICDO), created in 1931 by the French surgeon-general George Saint-Paul. The intergovernmental organization develops structures “for ensuring the protection and assistance of populations, and for safeguarding property and the environment in the face of natural and man-made disasters.”

Members of ICDO are mainly countries from the Third World, Africa and Central Asia. The only EU country which belongs to ICDO is Cyprus.

The current Secretary General of ICDO is Vladimir Kuvshinov, who used to work for Emercom under Belaventsev.

Russia is the biggest donor to ICDO, contributing US$ 42.6 million last year for different projects around the globe. Between 2008 and 2012, Russian contributions to ICDO totaled more than US$ 200 million, said the current Minister of Emergency of Russia Vladimir Puchkov.

Much of that money went to Belaventsev’s companies.

Demining operations: Serbia, Nicaragua, Sri Lanka, Lebanon

On July 4, 2008, when Shoigu was the Minister of Emergency Situations, he signed a memorandum of intent in Geneva with the previous Secretary General of ICDO, Nawaf Al Sleibi.

Shoigu and Al Sleibi agreed that the Government of Russia would provide ICDO with a special contribution of US$ 6 million for demining in Serbia. The same memorandum said that Emercom would be responsible for the project on behalf of the ministry.

In 2008 Russian specialists demined the territory around the Constantine the Great Airport near Nis, Serbia. From 2009 to 2011, a Russian detachment working with the Mine Action Center of the Republic of Serbia (SMAC) demined areas around the Serbian town of Parachin in preparation for the planned South Stream gas pipeline.

The first phase of the Russian demining program ended in 2012, at a cost of US$ 36 million. In 2012 the program was extended until 2022; the new agreement was signed by Belaventsev as the head of Emercom and Petar Mihajlovic as the director of SMAC…………………….

Bosnia: Salafist Leader Gets Seven Years for Recruiting Boys to Islamic State

Bosnic, 43, has been on trial since December 2014 for promoting jihad, recruiting followers to IS, and organizing their trips to Syrian and Iraqi battlefields. Judge Amela Huskic said those three charges were proven during the trial, despite Bosnic’s strong denials.

The court found that at least six young men died as a result of Bosnic’s influence: Emrah Filipovic, Samir Begic, Amir Crnjekovic, Ismar Mesinovic, Azmir Alisic, and Muaz Sabic.

The announcement of the verdict was a high-profile, high-security event. Bosnic, a former musician with four wives and 18 children, is the informal leader of the Islamic extremist Salafi community in Bosnia. Last month the prosecutor requested the maximum 20-year jail sentence, whereas the defense had called for full acquittal.

The courtroom was crowded for the sentencing of the slight, bearded man, with a clutch of state police and security officers on hand, most wearing ski-masks.

The Kid

A few months earlier, the court heard the testimony of a young man who was arrested at Sarajevo airport as he tried to travel to Turkey, and then on to Syria.

His name was Merim Keserovic. Sarajevo airport security footage of Merin Keserovic (left)

Prosecutor Dubravko Campara asked the 18-year-old witness if Bosnic ever advocated fighting for IS during his sermons, which Keserovic had attended before his attempted trip.

„I don’t remember,“ Keserovic said in an unsteady voice, his eyes flitting between Bosnic, the judge and the prosecution.

Campara then produced the statement Keserovic gave to police when he was arrested.

Signed by Keserovic, it says Bosnic spoke about the need for believers to join the „brothers“ fighting for IS in Syria.

Keserovic claimed police had written his statement for him, giving it to him to sign afterward; but he also confirmed its contents, adding that he’d been given instructions on who to meet once he arrived in Syria.

In a separate trial, Keserovic was sentenced to a year in prison.

Keserovic is a high school dropout from the village of Trnovi who comes from a poor family. His father died of cancer, leaving him, his mother and his two brothers to fend for themselves. Everyone in the family is unemployed.

He said he was only following the lead of his older brother, Alija, with whom he often attended Bosnic’s sermons. Alija departed for Syria earlier, after spending time with Bosnic minding his goats.

Where the elder brother is now, and what he is doing, remains unknown.

Why Bosnia?

The story of the brothers Keserovic is one example among many in the mountainous villages of Bosnia and Herzegovina – an economic black hole of widespread unemployment, rampant corruption, and the echoes of the early 1990s conflict that has never seen resolution.

The power-sharing political system installed by the peace agreement that ended the Bosnian war has nurtured a festering sense of injustice among Bosnia’s three main ethno-religious groups, the Orthodox Serbs, the Catholic Croats and the Muslim Bosniaks.

Arrest of BosnicThe three groups share a strong sense of nationalism. For a small minority of Bosniaks, nationalism led them to join the Salafist sect – Muslims who follow an extreme version of Islam, distinguishable in the streets of Bosnia by their long beards, loose clothing and cotton pants cut above the ankle; Salafist women are generally completely enveloped in black.

Bosnian Salafists predate the rise of IS. The first surfaced in Bosnia during the war between 1992 and 1995, when Bosnia was subject to an arms embargo and struggled to protect itself from Serb attacks. A number of fighters from the Middle East came to Bosnia to fight alongside their Muslim brethren; with them, they brought Salafism.

In the aftermath of the war, the Salafists‘ influence spread, although their interpretation of Islam never sat well with the country’s official Islamic community, which has taken issue with the group since the war. Most Bosnian Muslims reject the Salafists‘ restrictive, fundamentalist views.

The hub of Bosnia’s Salafi community appears to be located in Austria. In 2007, the former head of the Bosnian Islamic community, Mustafa Ceric, claimed that the masterminds behind Bosnian Salafism were Bosnians living in Vienna.

After several incidents involving Salafists – including the 2010 bombing of a police station in the central town of Bugojno, and a 2011 armed attack on the US Embassy in the capital Sarajevo – Bosnian authorities began to respond more forcefully. Scrutiny of the group intensified after the start of the Syrian civil war in 2011, as the international community began to focus on the activities of IS.

As a result, many Bosnian Salafists began to retreat to remote villages where they could live by their own rules.

One of those remote locations is the place where Bosnic was first arrested: the north-eastern village of Gornja Maoca.

The village, closed to media, has in the past couple of years developed a reputation as a stronghold of the Salafists. Some of the most prominent figures involved in extremist incidents have spent time there.

A New Leader

Several years ago, the informal leader in Gornja Maoca was Nusret Imamovic – now believed by the US State Department to be fighting in Syria. When Imamovic left, he left a void. For a short time, the Salafists lacked a unified voice.

Bosnic gained prominence with speeches and media appearances, becoming the Salafist community’s new leader. His September 2014 arrest, along with 15 others, was part of the high-profile police operation Damascus. Srebrenik municipality – location of Gornja Maoca

The Vulnerable

Bosnic preached near his home in north-western Buzim, and also travelled to give sermons. But he was rarely allowed to speak in front of a wider Dzemat (the Islamic community of one particular mosque, usually drawn from the neighborhood in which the mosque is located).

According to the Dzemat of the King Fahd mosque in Sarajevo, Bosnic tried to deliver a sermon there but was turned away.

Nezim Muderis Halilovic, who occasionally preaches at King Fahd, said: “He does not fit into our concept here.”

But in smaller communities, like the north-western town of Velika Kladusa, Bosnic was the religious authority, giving sermons after Friday prayers. According to witnesses, people traveled many miles to hear him speak.

For many he was also a father figure, and Alija Keserovic joined other young men who worked on Bosnic’s land before leaving for Syria.

Witness Sefik Cufurovic said his son Ibro, in his early 20s, was a good student before he went in 2013 to live with Bosnic in Buzim, to tend his sheep.

Ibro left for Syria shortly after. His whereabouts are not known.

Another witness, Rifet Sabic, said his son Suad was killed fighting for IS early this year after growing close to Bosnic.

„Any family whose house was ever visited by Bilal Bosnic is destroyed,“ Sabic told the court.

Nusret ImamovicNermin Sabic was offered a room by Bosnic after his father kicked him out. Soon, Sabic – in his early 30s – would also depart for Syria, where he was killed in 2013.

The Power of Interpretation

 According to defense lawyer Adil Lozo, Bosnic’s speeches are simply teachings from Islamic history, and verses from the Kur’an. Lozo says that Bosnic and other Salafists are the victims of discrimination, and that their rights to free thought, religion and expression are being suppressed.

After the Bosnic verdict was announced, Lozo told journalists: „Now we have, instead of religious authorities, judges who know how religious scriptures should be interpreted.“ He had complained that Judge Huskovic did not even know how to pronounce parts of Bosnic’s quotes in Arabic.

Several recordings of Bosnic’s sermons, used as evidence against him in the trial, are still available online. In one of them, uploaded in July 2014, Bosnic expresses joy over the“establishment of the Khalifat„.

In the courtroom, the prosecutor quoted from Bosnic’s sermons:“What makes the Lord of the servant, Allah, most happy is when his servant like that, without armor, jumps into a group of infidels and fights until he is killed.“

Selvedin Beganovic, a former religious leader for the village of Trnovi, told the court that Bosnic takes Islamic teachings out of their context and twists them.

„What Bosnic is doing and telling people is snatching away Islam,“ said Beganovic. „He does this by calling out to young men to go to jihad. He tells them to go fight a war, to die as Sehids [people who die on Allah’s path].“

This was confirmed by expert witness Vlado Azinovic, a professor of terrorism-related studies at the Faculty of Political Sciences in Sarajevo.

„Bosnic frequently used episodes from the history of Islam and selectively chose passages from the Kur’an which would incite believers to depart for battlefields in Syria, so they can fulfill God’s mission,“ he said.

A Different Kind of Organized Crime

One question remains unanswered.

Bosnia has an unemployment rate of more than 43 percent, a figure that rises to nearly 60 percent among Bosnian youth. The average monthly wage for those who do have a job is about 1,140 Bosnian marks (US$ 639).

So how did Merim Keserovic, an 18-year-old high school dropout from a poor, unemployed family, pay for a plane ticket to Turkey?

Keserovic’s trip was anticipated by authorities. While he was being arrested at Sarajevo airport in February, authorities were rounding up four other Salafists they suspected of planning and funding the attempted trip. Two of them later received prison sentences. Adil Lozo (left) and Husein Bosnic

Husein Erdic, from Bosnic’s small hometown Buzim – organized Keserovic’s travel onwards to Syria, and put him in touch with Midhat Trako, a man who fronted the cash for the plane ticket to Turkey. Erdic and Trako have been linked in court to Bosnic.

But during Bosnic’s trial, the court heard the testimony of a witness who himself fought alongside IS in Syria. His name cannot be reported for his own protection. He said Bosnic and his predecessor Nusret Imamovic were the only ones able to approve a person to fight for the terrorist group. If the testimony is to be believed, Trako could not have financed the trip on his own initiative.

According to trial witnesses, Bosnic received „vast sums“ from Arab countries, paid into his bank account. The indictment cites a sum of 200,000 Bosnian marks (about US$115,000) meant for financing the recruitment of Bosnians to IS – but the exact source of this money is not stated.

While there is no clear proof that this money was connected to travel expenses for those who left for Middle Eastern battlefields, testimony indicated that Merim, Alija, Suad, Nermin and others were part of Bosnic’s Dzemat before they left.

Many of those who left did not come back.

The prosecutor cited intelligence that 97 Bosnians have left for Syrian and Iraqi battlefields to date – 52 of them have returned, while 26 were killed. Most had one thing in common – they gathered in particular villages and mosques before they departed, including those where Bosnic held sermons.

Former religious leader Selvedin Beganovic testified that the groups of people who usually attended Bosnic’s speeches were poor, uneducated, or criminals who „hid behind their beards“.

The Charismatic Speaker

During his final statement, Bosnic spoke in a manner very similar to his Youtube speeches. He stood and began to talk slowly and calmly, but not quietly. He seemed both unconcerned and confident.

As he spoke, he moved his hands slowly and turned from time to time to directly address the courtroom audience.

„The heavens and the earth are witnesses to my innocence,“ he told them. Even as the verdict was passed two weeks later, Bosnic was calm and quiet.

Judge Huskic said Bosnic’s sentence was proof that Bosnia and Herzegovina is capable of prosecuting all those who threaten its national security.

Bosnic’s lawyer claims he will appeal the ruling. Prosecutors, meanwhile, say they will seek a longer sentence.

Ex-KLA Fighter Detained Over Crimes in Albania

A judge in the Basic Court of Mitrovica on Wednesday ordered 30 days of detention for former senior Kosovo Liberation Army fighter Xhemshit Krasniqi.

His lawyer Haji Millaku said the court acted on the request of EU rule-of-law mission, EULEX, citing fears that he could endanger investigations if he was free.

“He is held on suspicion that he committed war crimes in the spring of 1999 on the territory of Albania,” Millaku told BIRN.

Krasniqi was arrested on Sunday in his hometown of Prizren in southern Kosovo during a police operation conducted by EULEX.

EULEX prosecutors suspect he committed war crimes against civilians detained in camps run by the KLA in northern Albania.

He was allegedly involved in torturing detainees in camps in Kukes and Cahan during April, May and June 1999, during the conflict in neighbouring Kosovo.

During the NATO bombing of former Yugoslavia, from March to June 1999, the KLA, then fighting Serbian police and military, had a base in the Albanian town of Kukes from where they conducted guerrilla operations across the border in Kosovo.

The KLA also maintained a network of prisons in their bases in Albania and Kosovo during and after the conflict of 1999.

These held Kosovo Albanians suspected of collaboration, Serbs and Roma. Some detainees were tortured and it also believed that some were killed.

Serbian association of missing persons says some 500 Kosovo Serbs are still listed as missing.

A Council of Europe report from 2011 said KLA fighters used a former metal factory in Kukes and converted it into a multi-purpose facility, including at least two “cellblocks” to house detainees.

The same report said the prisoners “were thrown into makeshift cellblocks, left in insanitary conditions without food and water, and were visited periodically by KLA soldiers to be questioned under harsh treatment, or indiscriminately beaten”.

In statements given to UN prosecutors in 2009 and 2010, more than ten individuals – almost all of them ethnic Albanians – described having been detained indefinitely, struck with sticks and other objects, and subjected to various forms of inhuman treatment at the Kukes site.

Several witnesses stated that screams of agony from persons held in separate sets of cellblocks could be heard filtering through the corridors.

Kosovo is currently in the process of forming a new internationally backed court, which is expected to be based both in Pristina and The Hague.

The establishment of the so-called „specialist chambers“ comes after the EU’s Special Investigative Task Force last July published the findings of its three-year investigation into allegations initially made by Council of Europe rapporteur Dick Marty

Oil Slick in Durres Causes Outrage in Albania

Tirana

Oil pollution that struck the beach of the Albanian port and resort of Durres a few days ago has revealed the negligence of institutions in preventing such situations.

Albania has also been slow in implementing regulations to ensure greater discipline regarding the waste management of ships anchored in the country’s ports.

The Ministry of Environment a year ago proposed a regulation to the Council of Minister about imposing an environmental fee for all vessels anchored.

Now, as a result of the lack of rules, some of them skip depositing their waste in the ports and do so in the open sea.The ministry told BIRN that the new regulation would seek to control the waste processing of all ships entering ports, forcing them to deposit their waste in a more organized way.

The ministry says the new regulation would encourage them to deposit their waste in the ports since they already have to pay the fee.

If the regulation is approved by the Council of Ministers, financial institutions will decide how much ships anchored in Albanian ports have to pay in environmental fees.

On Saturday, when locals spotted the polluted seashore in Durres, the Minister of Environment, Lefter Koka, said that the institutions in charge of guarding Albania’s maritime water had shown their irresponsibility.

„Albanian institutions are sleeping, we can’t tolerate any more situations like this. If we do not find the responsible ship which polluted the area soon I will propose that the Prime Minister fires all the representatives of these institutions,“ he said, inspecting the Durres shore.

The general prosecutor’s office has started a probe into the incident and is collecting information from agencies to connect the dots and find out who was responsible.

It is still unclear if the oil came from a ship passing through Albanian territorial waters or if the vessel was anchored in the port of Durres, which is the biggest in the country.

Top Albanian Judge’s ‘Illegal’ Riches Come to Light

Tirana

Tirana Appeals Court Judge Alaudin Malaj | Photo by : LSA

After 22 years as a judge, Alaudin Malaj, the head of the Tirana Appeals Court, believes owing Cartier watches is no sign of a luxurious lifestyle.

In an interview last month, the judge, who has been charged with money laundering and concealing his wealth, added that cars that are not brand new cannot be considered luxury items, either.

“I cannot accept that a car produced in 2008 is luxurious,” Malaj told Albania’s Ora News TV.

The judge drives a 2011 Mercedes S350, which cost him €63,000, a fraction of his disclosed wealth, estimated at €1.7 million.

According to the High Inspectorate for the Declaration and Audit of Assets and Conflict of Interests, HIDAACI, much of this money was amassed illegally.

It was then concealed through a scheme that involved lodging companies in the name of relatives to cover the origin of the cash.

The HIDAACI says that in 2003, the first year when the law forced public officials and judges in Albania to disclose their assets, Malaj had a declared wealth of €60,000.

Eleven years on, the family of the Appeals Court judge is estimated to own combined assets worth €1.7 million spread over business investments and real estate.

After a recent audit of his assets disclosures declarations, the HIDAACI discovered that the judge and his wife had received shares in companies from his parents – transfers that the agency deems fraudulent.

The investigation into the judge’s assets revealed that Malaj and his wife, Edlira, received 46 million lek (€337,000) and two apartments from the judge’s parents alone.

Meanwhile, the judge’s wife has been declared the administrator or owner of two construction companies that Malaj’s parents founded. She also owns a pharmaceutical company in Kosovo.

The HIDACCI says that over an 11-year period, Malaj filed 24 fake asset disclosure declarations to cover the real source of his wealth.

The Durres prosecutor’s office is investigating the charges against him and has filed criminal proceedings.

Malaj refused to comment to BIRN on the charges that the HIDAACI has filed. However, in the TV interview last month, he expressed shock that the agency had made his wealth public.

“I have the earnings from my salary and from participation on various boards and my wife has a public notary business,” he said.

“People in political circles have got used to making millions without any work, which is why they bother us judges,” Malaj added.

Real estate proves safe bet

Alaudin Malaj is a career judge. Since completing college studies in 1993, he has been a first instance and appeals court judge.

In 2014, the centre-left ruling parties blocked a presidential decree nominating him to the Supreme Court owing to a political row with the head of state.

Earlier, in 2006, Malaj was transferred from Vlora Appeals Court to the Tirana Appeals Court.

In 2012, the High Council of Justice nominated him as head of the Tirana Appeals Court.

According to his asset disclosure declaration, in 2003 Malaj owned only an apartment of 106 square metres.

He bought this for 7.8 million lek (€52,700), which he collected through the sale of another apartment in Vlora and a loan from his parents of 2.85 million lek (€20,000).

The HIDAACI says that Malaj lied in his disclosure about receiving a loan from his parents because the sum never appeared in his subsequent declarations with the agency.

According to the HIDAACI, Malaj bought six apartments in Tirana and Durres between 2003 and 2014, while his father gifted Malaj’s wife, Edlira, with two other apartments.

The real estate portfolio turned into a cash generator for the judge’s family after he rented some of them out at above-market rates and sold others for many times the purchase price.

In his asset disclosure declaration in 2010, Malaj says he had bought a single-storey villa in a resort in the village of Golem near Durres for $35,000 (€32,900).

Four years later, he sold the same villa for €150,000.

The HIDAACI also claim to have discovered a dubious scheme of real-estate transfers involving his father and wife.

Malaj’s father, Hasan, bought one apartment in 2006 for €61,000 and gave it to Edlira in 2012, it noted.

In 2014, Edlira sold the gifted apartment to her brother for €120,000. The HIDAACI says that neither the judge’s father nor his brother-in-law had any income that could explain where they got the money to buy the apartments.

“This type of transaction, acquisition and sale of real estate among family members is a typical money laundering scheme,” the HIDAACI file with the prosecutor’s office says.

Malaj and his wife seemed to stop their real estate investments in 2010 when they declared the purchase of the home where they now reside on Sami Frasheri St in Tirana, near the city’s artificial lake.

The duplex apartment covers more than 300 square metres. Malaj says he bought it for 21.5 million lek (€158,000), which means a cost €442 per square metre.

The HIDAACI underlines in its complaint to the prosecutors that the declaration must be false.

This is because the company that constructed the apartment complex, TID sh.p.k., says each square metre in the building was sold for between €800 and €2,000.

The calculations of the HIDAACI show that the apartment in 2010 must therefore have been worth about 54 million lek (€368,160).

“The apartment had a minimum cost of 34 million lek (€250,000) and a maximum cost of 70 million lek (€514,000),” the complaint with the prosecutor’s office reads.

New business opened in Kosovo

The judge’s immediate family meanwhile controls four companies, including Algan sh.p.k., a construction company founded in 1998, Lili sh.p.k., trading in trade bottled water, founded in 2002, Rigels Sh.p.k., another construction company, founded in the same year, and lately Medbrand KS, a pharmaceutical company created in Pristina in October 2014.

In the complaint filed against Malaj, the HIDAACI says it suspects the judge used companies held in the name of his family members to conceal illegal income and assets through the transfer of shares or the use of joint personal and company accounts.

Algan sh.p.k is the family’s most important business. The judge’s mother founded the construction company but his brother controls it now. Over 14 years, the company has raked in 221 million lek (€1.62 million) in profits.

In 2007, Malaj’s wife, Edlira, became a shareholder after her mother-in-law gifted her 40 per cent of the shares worth 3.9 million lek.

As a shareholder Edlira Malaj has earned millions in dividends and also took out a loan in the company’s name to buy the Tirana duplex apartment on Sami Frasheri St.

In the 2014 asset declaration, Edlira Malaj wrote that she had withdrawn from Algan sh.p.k, and from the shares given to her in 2007 and had sold them back to her mother-in-law for 3.9 million lek.

At the same time, Edlira has also been a shareholder in the company Rigels Sh.p.k, after her father-in-law gifted her 90 per cent of the shares. However, her income from this company has been less.

In 2013 she opened a notary office, creating another source of revenue for the family.

Her asset disclosure claims that she earned 25 million lek (€180,000) from the business in 2013 and 14 million lek (€100,000) in 2014.

HIDAACI believes this self-declaration is false because such revenues are far suspiciously high for a public notary business.

In October 2014, Edlira Malaj founded the company Medbrand KS Sh.p,k. in Pristina with a starting capital of €1,000.

The Kosovo business register says the company of two employees engages in the wholesale trade of orthopedic medical equipment.

The criminal complaint filed by the HIDAACI says Malaj transferred €300,000 to the company in Pristina.

Of this figure, €150,000 of which came from the house sold in the village of Golem, €100,000 from an apartment she sold to her brother and €50,000 from her bank account.

HIDAACI has no record of how this money was invested in Kosovo. However, in the complaint, Chief Inspector Shkelqin Ganaj asserts that the judge has accumulated €1.6 million by hiding the origin of the money through false declarations.

“The suspect has concealed his wealth and made false declaration of his private interests while there are suspicions of money laundering,” the agency concluded.

EU lockert Öl-Embargo gegen Syrien

Aus den Gebieten, die von Rebellen kontrolliert werden, darf wieder Öl exportiert werden. Die EU lockert ihre Sanktionen gegen Syrien, um «die demokratische Opposition zu stärken».

Zur Infografik »

Künftig ist – versuchsweise bis 1. Juni – mit Zustimmung dieser Koalition die Einfuhr von Rohöl aus Syrien wieder möglich. Auch Kreditfinanzierungen sind wieder erlaubt.Das Verbot der Lieferung von Hochtechnologie für den Öl- und Gassektor wurde aufgehoben, wenn diese Lieferungen von der syrischen Opposition gebilligt werden. Möglicherweise werden später auch Handels- und Finanzsanktionen mit Ausnahmeklauseln für die Opposition geöffnet.

Der deutsche Aussenminister Guido Westerwelle bezeichnete die beschlossene Lockerung der Sanktionen als «wichtigen Schritt, der Koalition eigene Einnahmen zu erschliessen». Weiter sagte er: «Wir möchten, dass die von der Opposition kontrollierten Gebiete sich gut entwickeln können. Deswegen werden die Sanktionen aufgehoben.»

Künftig werde jede Art von Hilfeleistung über die Institutionen der syrischen Opposition laufen: «Denn wir wollen, dass die demokratischen Institutionen der Opposition gestärkt werden», sagte Westerwelle.

Lockerung des Waffen-Embargos

Über die von Frankreich und Grossbritannien gewünschte Erlaubnis zur Lieferung von Waffen wurde noch nicht entschieden. Waffenlieferungen werden von den anderen EU-Ländern abgelehnt.

Das Verbot von Waffenlieferungen nach Syrien ist bis Ende Mai befristet. Es kann nur einstimmig verlängert werden. Deutschland sei gegen Waffenlieferungen, weil solche Waffen in die Hände von Terroristen geraten könnten, sagte Westerwelle. «Aber wenn andere europäische Partner zu einer anderen Einschätzung kommen, dann respektieren wir das natürlich und könnten und wollten das auch gar nicht blockieren.»

EU-Kommissionspräsident José Manuel Barroso seinerseits kündigte am Montag in Brüssel mehr humanitäre Hilfe für die syrische Zivilbevölkerung an.

«Die EU bereitet ein umfangreiches Hilfspaket zur Unterstützung vor allem der Flüchtlinge vor», sagte Barroso nach einem Treffen mit US-Aussenminister John Kerry. Bisher sind UNO-Angaben zufolge rund 1,3 Millionen Menschen aus Syrien geflohen. Die Zahl der Todesopfer wird auf etwa 70’000 geschätzt.

Chef der syrischen Opposition definitiv zurückgetreten

Derweil geht der blutige Kampf in Syrien weiter. Wie die oppositionsnahe Syrische Beobachtungsstelle für Menschenrechte am Montag mitteilte, wurden innerhalb der vergangenen fünf Tage in einem Vorort von Damaskus, der seit Sonntag von der Armee vollständig kontrolliert wird, mindestens 80 Tote gefunden.

Einige der identifizierten Leichen, die nach dem Sturm auf Dschdaidet al-Fadl gefunden worden seien, hätten schwere Verstümmelungen aufgewiesen, teilte die Beobachtungsstelle mit.

Vermutlich sei die Zahl der Opfer noch höher, aber die genaue Zahl sei schwer zu ermitteln, sagte der Chef der Beobachtungsstelle, Rami Abdel Rahman. «Wir fordern das Internationale Komitee vom Roten Kreuz auf, eine Delegation nach Dschdaidet al-Fadl zu entsenden, um (die Vorfälle) zu untersuchen».

Regierungstruppen erzielten auch in der zentralen Region Homs Erfolge über die Aufständischen. Sie rückten nach der Einnahme mehrerer Dörfer auf die Rebellenhochburg Kusseir vor.

Der Chef des syrischen Oppositionsbündnisses SNC, Ahmed Moas al-Chatib, erneuerte wegen der «Untätigkeit» der internationalen Staatengemeinschaft im Syrien-Konflikt seine Rücktritterklärung. Ein Mitglied der Syrischen Nationalen Koalition (SNC) sagte, der Rücktritt Chatibs sei nun endgültig. Ein neuer Vorsitzender soll an einem Treffen am 10. und 11. Mai gewählt werden.

Das Terroristen und Drogen Netzwerk des Recep Erdogan, MIT Chef: Hakan Fidan mit Yassin Al-Qudi (Kadi)

Der Saudi Yasin Kadi (al-Qudi) gilt als der Bin Laden Financier, aber ebenso von Izebegovic in Bosnien, Salih Berisha in Albanien, ebenso vor 20 Jahren bereits Financier von Recep Erdogan und hat US Pass. Bis Oktober 2012, war er auf der Internationalen Terroristen Liste. 1994 existierten bei Vore vor Tirana bereits Ausbildungs Camps für Terroristen von den Saudis finanziert.

Recep Erdogan und sein Terroristen Financier: Yassin al-Qudi (US Pass). Der Türkische MIT Chef, Hakan Fidan war ja der Verbindungs Mann im Kosovo Krieg schon mit identischen Personen in der Finanzierung und Ausbildung von Terroristen. Hakan Fidan, war der Schlüsselmann, die Amerikaner zuüberzeugen, die Kosovo UCK Terroristen zuunterstützen in 1998.

Website des  Elmar Brok, der in seinen Verbrechen, Bruch des Völkerrechts, den Überblick verloren hat.

Seien wir realistisch: Einen Konflikt zwischen Russland und, nun ja…, zwischen allem und jedem zu provozieren, ist eine Standardvorgehensweise für ‚den Big Brother‘. Um das zu erreichen hat die USA ihre Augen und Ohren fast überall und nicht zuletzt auch innerhalb der Türkei, in der Form eines bis zum heutigen Tage agierenden „Gladio“ Netzwerkes, wie es die Ergenekon Ermittlungen offenbart haben. Die Gülen-Bewegung – eine von der CIA unterstützte „moderate“ islamische Schwindel-NGO (auf Deutsch: Nichtregierungsorganisation) – ist es in diesem Zusammenhang auch Wert, näher betrachtet zu werden. Der FBI Whistleblower Sibel Edmonds hat Insider-Wissen wofür die Gülen-Bewegung wirklich existiert:

„Unter dem Deckmantel von Schulen [Madrasas] in Zentralasien & Kaukasus ist sein Netzwerk involviert in der Ausbildung von Terroristen [tschetschenische und andere islamische Jihadisten in der Gegend]. Das FBI hatte ihn seit 1998 unter Überprüfung. Jedoch wurde das FBI [trotz aller gesammelten Beweise] auf Druck der CIA und des State Departments daran gehindert die Fälle weiterzuverfolgen. Woher weiss ich das? Einige dieser Akten waren in der Abteilung, für die ich gearbeitet habe [Spionageabwehr].“

„I speak onto you Albanians. There is still time to re-route our journey towards the best possible future. You must be bold and brave. Together we can do it with the help of the Expert Dreamers. Europe’s most beautiful and friendliest republic can accomplish the dream, but not with the current players and stakeholders.“

In 1991 Albania left behind the world’s most tight and closed communist regime dominated by Enver Hoxha until his death in 1985. Many areas in the previous regime worked better then than they do today. Market economy and democracy have brought chaos, corruption and improvisation to the young and dynamic republic. To be remembered institutions, public transportation, the educational system in the three levels primary, secondary and university all worked much better during the communist regime. Even culture was better funded and society was characterized by a total absence of corruption. Nobody questions the necessity and convenience of embracing a well-functioning market economy within a smoothly-ran democracy. This is not the case for today’s Albania where the need to embrace radical policy making is manifest.

I talk to the Albanian elites who might read my analysis. Many will be surprised even astonished by the clarity and brutality of my words. Do not be surprised. Be warned. These are not my words. These words, these statements that I make explicit today belong in the mouths and the offices of the country’s most relevant personalities. There is no room for optimism. The situation is dramatic. Albania must change the course of its path to change the course of history. The country can continue to move as fast as a steam wagon or become a maglev train. Be warned, in both scenarios we will be moving ahead with a perception of progress. The current elites lack the insight and the technology to accelerate changes so that relative improvement is feasible.

Albania is today a country ran by a myriad of political parties ran by a zillion of mediocre politicians. There are -as always- exceptions to the rule. Endogamy and nepotism feed the ranks of the public administration, where connections, money, or traffic of influence rules who is hired and who is turned down, within Ministries, the Central Bank, City Halls, Public Hospitals, Schools and Universities. A total absence of meritocracy encourages everyone to call a friend or acquaintance when trying to „place“ sons and daughters in the public administration. Large corporate tycoons control a radically polarized and segmented media which according to the Western model purely broadcasts garbage entertainment full of irrelevant chartalan-based politics and violence which matters little next to the the country’s and the World’s real challenges. Undoubtedly and unwittingly, citizens become the miserable victims of a 1984-George Orwell’s big brother which contaminates the gossip with biased priorities.

Albania is today a country where corruption is manifest in every single level of society, from the individual to the group, from the poorest to the richest. Everyone without exception tries to find the shortcut to obtain an unfair competitive advantage exploiting the system at its best and most. Pressure from parents in the schooling system forces teachers and professors to inflate the grades of the children of the better off and the powerful. Members of parliament run private universities of questionable quality selling diplomas the youth will never be able to exploit while using the proceeds to finance their children’s education at top institutions abroad. Youth unemployment and a buoyant informal economy challenge the nation’s ability to raise taxes. Unable to raise taxes properly the political establishment chooses to engage in a rising taxes policy. Those living in rural areas migrate to the city in search for a better living which they shall not find. Those in Tirana who realize the lack of opportunity is here to stay choose to migrate abroad where they will usually remain underemployed in the services sector. In the meantime politicians try to dictate how society should be without excelling by example. There are no role models to follow or be inspired with.

The baby boomers born in the aftermath of the communist regime fall encounter a terrible job market in which their best aspirations consist in finding a job in a call center serving the Italian market. The lucky ones who do get a job exploit whatever connections they may have. The total lack of competitiveness makes Albanian Universities the worst choice possible, even the private ones. Those who can send their kids to study abroad, and to remain living abroad to avoid the country’s fallacy of apparent leadership and prosperity.

The international institutions are only worsening the scenario doing a disservice to the Albanian society by acknowledging the validity of accountability of the current elites. Everyone who has a vested interest in the system cannot speak up. I choose to speak up because I am a foreigner with nothing to lose and no conflicts of interest when it comes to being blunt and blatant with a reality which is impossible to digest any longer. A World citizen rather than a foreigner who by the way feels at home in Albania.

Yes there are many reasons to be optimistic when looking at the country’s progress since 1991. But there is enough room to be seriously concerned. The macroeconomic indicators could and should be much better starting with per-capita incomes, GDP growth, unemployment rate, foreign direct investment or public debt-to-GDP ratio.

In the meantime Western countries continue to export an obsolete economic model based on the inundation of unnecessary and redundant multiple-choice and programmed obsolescence products and services which by the way Western countries manufacture and export for the sake of their developed economics and their highly-educated personnel. Albanians continue to love Mercedes Benz and I-Phones, surprisingly abundant for a country with a per capita income under the USD 10 000 mark. Politics-based governance articulated according to the fragmentation of the ideological spectre is ruining the possibility of uniting society along an axis different from nationalism and football, which may bring apparent and temporary joy and pride but never progress or prosperity. And by the way in spite of the appearance of the left-wing or right-wing dress, all political parties exert a same ideology in the very center of the vast range of possibilities.

Albania and Albanians may be making absolute progress. But what matters in today’s world is relative progress compared to more developed nations. If relative progress is slow Albania will continue to fall and not climb in the international rankings. The drama, the orgy of bad governance, the pandemics of corruption, the evils of nepotism and connections will destroy a country and a society already confused, tired, lost in a transition to nowhere where the light is being shadowed by partisan and spurious domestic and international interests. Subsequent to Enver Hoxha’s death, Albanians opened Pandora’s box when they looked at the West as a benchmark to copy and follow. Western countries are the foremost example of what not to copy or embrace as standards for the developing World. Canada and The United States would not be what they are today in the absence of the massive diasporas of qualified personnel landing on their shores. Western Europe would not be what it is today in the absence of centuries of excessive and sometimes abusive colonization and annihilation of remote territories where societies were massacred and imposed upon systems and standards that simply did not fit.

Albania must change the course of its governance and leadership to change the course of history. The country must embrace extreme cooperation with its neighbors including Kosovo but also Macedonia and Serbia. A large market shall benefit everyone in the Balkans. The country’s protagonists and intellectuals must hear my call and join our efforts to launch post-politics as an alternative governance paradigm. The mediocre and corrupt must either resign or embrace radical change. Aggregate interest must prioritize individual interest until Albania reaches a reasonable level of prosperity well beyond its current level.

My due diligence is accurate, exact and fair. It portrays in a straightforward and descriptive narrative the central part of the distribution of opinions I have incorporated from circa one hundred personalities. Whoever wishes to challenge me can confront the domestic protagonists who have welcomed me and my presence in Europe’s friendliest republic. I feel confident and comfortable with my analysis. Statistically speaking I cannot be wrong or biased after speaking and spending hundreds of hours with the countries‘ real insiders and visionaries.

I speak onto you Albanians. There is still time to re-route our journey towards the best possible future. You must be bold and brave. Together we can do it with the help of the Expert Dreamers. Europe’s most beautiful and friendliest republic can accomplish the dream, but not with the current players and stakeholders.

Corruption is our worst enemy in Albania which is fuelled sadly also by western diplomats who see themselves as some sort of celebrities in a media which is highly politicized and mediocre. Very few foreigners are honest and frank as main priority is not democracy and the rule of law but stability which often comes at the back of fraud election processes and even killing protesters ( ex PM Berisha and his gang of cronies killed 4 protesters and has yet to face justice) . Is encouraging to see a more direct approach taken by Edi Rama’s government. For the first time we see the majority of people in Albania paying for their electricity and utility bills and business issuing receipts for their transactions. Contrary to some media analyst and politicians, people in Albania by large have supported these „harsh measure“ which only means one thing; People are desperate for rule of law and order. They’ve had enough of older generations still remembering the good old times under communism. Everyone understand in Albania that to destroy a country you do not need to invade or bomb, but instead , encourage or ignore corruption within their educational, medical and criminal justice structures and there you have it – a backward and poor country.

The diagnosis is correct. However I don’t agree with the cure proposed. Freedom should be the cure. Free market economy is the cure. Minimum state role in the economy is the cure.Solving once and for all the private property rights issue is the cure. Not joining the EU is the cure. Tax free areas for investors and lowest taxes possible is the cure. Breaking monopolies that are eating us alive. Let the people free and they will do the rest.

Your analysis is depressing but accurate. Aside for Albanian politics, Albania has a national identity crisis. Your 20-30 year old Albanian is cynical, unmotivated, lacking of ambition and entitled. Though Albanians are the friendliest people in Europe, I loathe them for exactly be known only for that. We could be so much more and we have become complacent and resigned ourselves to the mediocre, power hungry politicians.

Excellent article. Based on all the bad things that are visible to every citizen you are absolutely correct , but the youth knows. We see and we fight for a better place. Run by those who do not only see 4 years in advance. I should say that despite of it being hard to change and further progress there is still a lot of hope.

We, foreigners loving Albania and the Albanians, have all experienced the state described in your article.
Despite the sad truth of the selfishness state of mind of certain people in power, destroying opportunities for foreign investments, there are still so much potential for the country to progress and reach the level of some of our European countries. Albania is definitely not the eldorado but one country to follow, hoping that these facts change for the best and for the country. There is a culture to change at some level and that will be the challenge for Albania! Thank you for your article
