PAGE 3 EDITORIAL By Ervin Mazniku The state of disorder Albanians, don't ...? The noise against the government, which continues to fall as quickly as possible, has led the opposition to ask the government for the removal of Parliament. These and other things were said in a statement by a parliamentary group. The opposition has long accused the government of a host of evils, so it is not enough to convince its official public opinion that this is normal. These terms are used in the media and the opposition has had a share in government; they do not deserve to place it at the center of attention every day, because it is once again clear that the government has failed. This is the alarming point for the opposition. It must be beyond that; otherwise the statements come out pointless. And in such a situation, the space that the government should have had in order to reflect and calm the country has not come. Since everyone in the opposition addresses it in a harsh tone, reminding it that the country is heading toward an inevitable abyss. Worse, the opposition appeals to the government, but not openly, rather in an indirect way. The belittlement of Albanian mistakes for the rulers was strengthened and is swirling with 400 Kalashnikovs and bullets in the north. Out of control: Tropoja, Laç, Mirdita and Kukës Special units, all in the north Special forces from the Ministry of Public Order are fully investigating criminal activity in the northern district, where an unprecedented conflict has escalated in recent days. Last night, near the city of Laç, after an assault with an automatic weapon in the city center, 4 people lost their lives. A police vehicle, in which the chief of light operations, Colonel Urgjenci [?], together with 6 police officers from Laç, was traveling, was attacked and surrounded. After the attack, one of the policemen was killed, while the others were seriously injured. Afterwards, the attackers fled in an unknown direction. Although the police organized extensive searches, by late night they had not been captured. In Tirana, the entire state machinery has been set in motion to confront the situation, but the latest reports from the northern districts show that the situation remains tense. In Durrës, traffic and criminal police specialists are keeping the city’s entry and exit points under control, while in Milot and Fushë-Krujë numerous checkpoints have been set up.
