Yesterday the Supreme Leader of Iran's regime Ali Khamenei attacked Albania for hosting the MEK which he said had plotted the recent #IranProtests.
His remarks prompted strong reactions from Albanian PM @ediramaal, President @ilirmetazyrtar & Diaspora Minister @PandeliMajko.

@ediramaal @ilirmetazyrtar @PandeliMajko "Iran must respect international agreements, international laws."
"Albania is not an evil country but a democratic country that has suffered from an evil dictatorship unparalleled in its kind therefor considers human rights sacred."

Most of Iran's diplomats are trained terrorists that stem from the regime's Intel Ministry & IRGC. Their main task is to spy on dissidents & foment terror. Now it's time for EU states to follow 🇦🇱's lead & #ExpelIranDiplomatTerrorists.

We're proud to have offered shelter to MEK members whose lives were threatened by the regime. We're not going to change our approach (Jan 29)

Well done to @ediramaal for standing up to Ali Khamenei

Police in Albania have arrested an Iranian Intelligence Ministry agent for targeting the opposition MEK. Bijan Pooladrag attempted to hack/spy on MEK telephones/computers for Iran's regime. He is one of several active MOIS agents in Albania. #DisbandIRGC
