Anuela Ristani has reacted to the decision of the Mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, to remove her delegated rights, announcing her departure as deputy mayor from the capital's municipality.
Through a long message, Ristani expresses his gratitude for Tirana and its citizens, while saying that he leaves with "pride, humility and full of love" for the city.
"After more than a decade in the service of the most beautiful city in the world, I leave today with pride, humility and full of love for Tirana. What everyone covets, many love, but few understand.
The city I started working for 11 years ago, when I was crossing the short but long distance of "Skënderbej" Square, which could not be called a square, is today a meeting point for visitors from all over the world, who don't know exactly how to put a name to the allure they feel, because Tirana's strongest point is the good feeling it gives you.

Veliaj's move with Ristan, Berisha: Rama is becoming a dead horse

I am immensely grateful to all the fellow travelers of this unique experience, and to the citizens who break centuries-old prejudices and generational stereotypes to appear beautiful and proud all over the world.
Time is the fairest, most impartial, and most elusive judge. In respect of time, of what is to come, we need to see the city a little more as our own and love it for who we are, not for what it can do to us.
And as for me, I will always remain "xhomllikse" even though I was born in New Tirana and grew up across the ocean. I leave today with the support and love of those who mean the most to me. Thank you to everyone", writes Ristani. /LAPSI.al
