Albania has donated 3 million dollars
PPSH financed the whole world for 23 years
From the secret archives, here is the full story of the "Solidarity Fund"
FATOS BAXHAKU
TIRANE - Party money was not spent only on the Marxist-Leninist needs of Albania's workers and peasants; a good share of it was also set aside to give to the Marxist-Leninist parties of the world. From 1964 to 1991, from the three (?) hands and the bundles that emerged through the sweat and toil of the Albanian people, money was poured into the "Solidarity" fund, or, as it was called in the language of the time, "aid to the Marxist-Leninist communist and workers' parties". In official language, it was forbidden to mention the existence of such a fund, and aid to foreign parties was granted through secret minutes. Documents from the archive of the Central Committee of the PPSH show that Enver Hoxha himself had instructed that the beneficiaries of these aids be informed through our embassies around the world and that the money be handed over in person. In 1991, only a few months before the largest link in Albanian communist propaganda was dissolved, the Central Committee of the PPSH instructed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to prepare once again the list of the parties benefiting from the "Solidarity" fund. Over the years, Albanians had contributed this money as aid to the world proletariat. Starting only from 1964 until 1991, a total of 3 million 332 thousand dollars was collected. This money came from the sweat of workers, but also from the poor Albanian economy. Three scarce documents preserved in the archive show that this money went to Marxist-Leninist parties in different countries of the world. A considerable sum thus went to Asia, Africa and Latin America, but also to countries in Western Europe.
The official explanation was that Albania was helping the revolutionary forces and maintaining ties with the international Marxist-Leninist movement. In reality, the documents show an ongoing scheme of secret payments, controlled by the party apparatus. The amounts varied from year to year and according to the political force considered friendly by official Tirane.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, when the Albanian economy was going through a deep crisis, the fund continued to exist. This makes the contrast even stronger between the propaganda of domestic sacrifice and the financing of foreign organizations.

Seven people have been implicated for various offences linked to the misuse of foreign aid. The charges brought against them and others include abuse of office, forgery of documents and unlawful gain. Among the defendants are well-known names in the area and several former local officials. The trial is expected to take place in the coming days.
According to the first investigative materials, part of the aid intended for those in need never reached the beneficiaries. Instead, it was distributed through informal channels or recorded fictitiously. Investigators are checking the distribution lists and the way the warehouses were managed.

TIRANE - These are only 2 of the last 100 arrests for theft through computer fraud. The phenomenon is growing, and according to specialists, the groups involved in these activities use increasingly sophisticated methods. In some cases, young people passionate about computers have become involved in organized networks that manage to penetrate protected systems.
Most cases involve unauthorized use of cards, access to bank accounts and manipulation of data. The police say investigations are difficult because of the lack of expertise and equipment.
The aim of this article is to draw attention to a new criminal reality that has only just begun to become visible in Albania.
