Rejects NATO, but opens the door to the NATO country(!!!)<\/p>\n
Elbit System, one of the largest arms manufacturing companies in the world, based in Israel, has opened a branch in Albania. Three days ago, the company registered with the National Business Center its branch in Albania, which will carry out the same activity as its mother in Israel.<\/p>\n
Elbit is one of the largest arms manufacturers in the world. Its arrival in Albania is related to a large secret contract that Albania has signed with this company for the purchase of weapons.<\/p>\n
In July last year, Albania signed an extensive military agreement with Israel. The document signed by the Minister of Defense at the time Pirro Vengu and his Israeli counterpart was approved in the Council of Ministers.<\/p>\n
For many months Vengu’s signature was considered just a normal agreement between the two governments to cooperate in the field of defense. But at the end of last year it was revealed that it was not just an agreement between the two governments, but a secret business of hundreds of millions of dollars with the private company, Elbit Systems.<\/p>\n
In November of last year, one of the largest Israeli newspapers, Haaretz, revealed that Elbit System has secured a multi-million dollar contract from the Albanian government to supply Albania with heavy weaponry, including plagues and drones. At the same time, the Israeli company will open the aviation school in Vlora.<\/p>\n
The amount of the contract is kept secret, but some sources from the Ministry of Defense say that it is an agreement which could go up to 400 million dollars.<\/p>\n
A confidential source told Kapital that the government is considering a scheme similar to that of the Smart City project, to finance the heavy bill that Albania will pay to Barley. Systems.<\/p>\n
According to this source, the Israeli company will find the money in the bank itself. Albania will guarantee the loan with sovereign guarantees and then will take over its repayment including the interest.<\/p>\n
In the corridors of the Ministry of Defense it is rumored that one of the reasons for the dismissal of Pirro Vengu from the post of Minister of Defense and his replacement with Ermal Nufi was exactly Vengu’s reluctance to sign the financial details of this contract.<\/p>\n
It is not known if the signature process is exhausted after the appointment of Ermal Nufi, who in close circles is also known as Ermal Raketa, due to his willingness to sign whatever is asked of him, in order not to disappoint his boss. Because Ermali does not disappoint, but becomes a racket for the boss.<\/p>\n
Last summer, Elbit Systems was suspended by the NATO procurement agency due to a major corruption scandal involving allegations of bribery and sanctionable practices, according to documents published by the investigative media Follow the Money.<\/p>\n
The NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) suspended Elbit Systems and its subsidiary Orion Advanced Systems on July 31st. The suspension follows the emergence of serious allegations indicating possible involvement in corrupt practices by the Israeli company.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe vendor suspensions follow the emergence of serious allegations indicating that it is likely the suppliers engaged in sanctionable practices, including irregularities in the awarding of contracts,\u201d according to a letter from a senior manager at NSPA reviewed by investigative media sources.<\/p>\n
The suspension hinders Elbit to compete for new tenders from Nato while the Military Alliance suspended about 15 ongoing contracts it had with the Israeli company. The legal process continues and so far there is no final decision from the courts, but the scandal shocked NATO quite a bit.\u00a0\/capital<\/p>\n
