Former Italian left-wing Prime Minister Massimo D'Alema, who has since retired from politics to pursue his private business, has made a lot of money serving as a lobbyist, just like his counterparts Tony Blair and Gerhard Schröder. They know how to hunt down profitable clients, and one of them is likely Edi Rama.
The Italian right-wing newspaper " Il Giornale " has dedicated an article to him, which begins with the phrase that "D'Alema has an excellent sense of business". It takes stock of the profits of his consulting company, DL&M advisor, which the former prime minister and former DS secretary controls 100% and which he founded in 2019, after leaving active political life.
"The company's objective is "consultancy in the field of internationalization processes" of various foreign markets "for the search and attraction of investments from private companies" - the article states. "A profitable business, given that the balance of 2024 was closed with 1,578,170 euros in profit, an increase compared to 1,358,662 euros in 2023 and especially with 393,807 euros set aside in 2022."
After providing data on other businesses in agriculture and wine production, "Il Giornale" also says an interesting fact about Albania.
"There is, however, no reference to D'Alema's entrepreneurial adventure in Albania. The shares of the consulting company founded in Tirana in January 2023 "A&I Albania" are registered in the personal name of the former prime minister, therefore they are not linked to the chain of companies established in Italy," the daily writes .
In fact, the existence of this Albanian society of D'Alema was first revealed by the strong investigative show of RAI3 "Report". Italian journalist Giorgio Mottola directly asked Edi Rama if the former Italian Prime Minister was working as a lobbyist for him, given the fact that he has appeared in interviews defending Rama in the Italian press.
"Unbelievable! I have never talked about trade with Massimo D'Alema. I have always talked about politics, I have always talked about Albania, I have always talked about... Then, he is free to do whatever he wants. Well, you always present these things like this"! - said Rama in surprise, calling D'Alema not a lobbyist, but his mentor.
In its investigation, Report discovered that the offices of D'Alema's company are located in the Palace of Culture in Tirana, and former Deputy Prime Minister Arben Ahmetaj was quoted as saying that D'Alema lobbies in Albania for a cryptocurrency company.
Just like Rama, D'Alema refused to answer RAI 3 about why he had opened the company in our country. The amount he earned here, unlike in Italy which is transparent, also remains a mystery. Not even Il Giornale could reveal it.
