US warns of earthquakes in Albania and the Balkans, opens letters for millions invested in "off shore" companies, endangered dozens of politicians

The United States of America is expected to start reprisals in the ranks of the Albanian rulers. The declaration "non grata" of former Prime Minister Sali Berisha will not be the only decision, as he will be followed by many other politicians. The warning came yesterday from Washington. US Deputy Assistant Secretary of State and Special Envoy for the Balkans Gabriel Escobar, in an interview with VOA in Serbian, warned that there would be other "non grata" names in the Balkans. Escobar said that the US is committed to the fight against corruption in the Balkans and that according to him, one of the tools in this fight is sanctions, while he went on to say that sanctions have an effect and that there will be others. But he warned that there would be measures against all "offshore" companies, behind which officials and politicians are hiding. "I can not and do not want to comment on the details. And I can not talk about the details of our diplomatic engagement with different people in the region. I can tell you that sanctions prevent people from transferring money. "They prevent and lead to the closure of 'offshore' companies through which money is transferred, especially public funds, through non-transparent processes that benefit very few people," he said. If this happens, many government officials in Albania will be penalized. Ministers, former ministers, MPs and other officials are known to have invested in "offshore" companies. In some scandals like "Panama Papers" or "Pandora Papers" it has been rumored that there are politicians and names associated with politicians and an action by the US would bring storm to Albania. Escobar added that those sanctions are not aimed at certain countries or peoples, but as he said, individuals who are deeply involved in corruption. "Sanctions are not the main tool of US engagement in the region, however this administration is very committed to the fight against corruption and one of the tools in this fight is these sanctions. And I can say yes, there will be more sanctions, but this will not be the main tool of our engagement. "They target individuals who are deeply involved in corruption," he said. Escobar, when asked about the effect the sanctions will have, he said they will have a lot of effect. He stressed that sanctions will prevent corrupt people from transferring money. however this administration is very committed to the fight against corruption and one of the tools in this fight is these sanctions.

Reagon Yuri Kim

On the other hand, yesterday, Ambassador Yuri Kim also reacted. She conveyed a message from Martin Luther King, who fought in the United States against racism and rejected political violence. Kim has said that his legacy should continue to inspire us and it seems that this is a message for the scenes of violence on January 8 in front of the blue headquarters by supporters of former Prime Minister Sali Berisha. “Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is revered in the United States and around the world not only for his efforts for justice and equality for all, but also for his rejection of political violence. "Let his legacy continue to inspire us," she said. Her stance seems to have been a message for the January 8 violence. Meanwhile,
