Climate change is not saving anyone anymore. All units, all prefectures, must refresh the plan of measures. There should be maximum engagement and coordination with civil emergencies. To my knowledge, the Minister of Defense has also started a round of meetings, taking into account the budgeting of 2025. In addition to the fact that all the requirements have been listed and inventoried, on the other hand, in addition to the additional machines or forces that will be required, it will be required and a good, efficient plan for coping with all the problems that may come with the autumn rains or with the frosts during the winter", underlined Balluku.
As winter approaches, Balluku further added, an even better coordination is important for the management of any situation as a result of bad weather.
"We will stay in touch, as we are entering a period which should have been called 'late autumn' already, because we are on the verge of winter, however, with the change in climatic conditions, this autumn has been extended. Therefore, I believe that in the coming weeks we will also have the beginning of rains from all the information we have from civil aviation meteorologists, so it will take a commitment of all structures", said Balluku.
Interior Minister Ervin Hoxha asked for immediate measures to be taken in every district, within the framework of civil emergencies.
