Shkodër, seizures at the Montenegrin border

SHKODER - Yesterday the market in Tuzi was quieter and more deserted than on other days.
"War over the embargo"
For two or three days, almost exclusively for Albanian traders. The lifting of international sanctions against the former Yugoslavia has now "legalized" smuggling on the Danube. Thousands of tons of fuel, at prices lower than Albanian-produced fuel, are flooding and taking over the market of Serbs and Yugoslavs through the Bulgarian-Romanian border. Meanwhile, another "embargo" has begun on Albanian borders, but this time in the opposite direction.

Enver rewarded Tito:
1 million USD for the assassination attempt
TIRANE - Enver Hoxha rewarded Tito with one million dollars for the exposure of the assassination attempt against Skënder Kupi. From the testimony of old Yugoslav agents, interesting evidence emerges about the relations between the Albanian and Yugoslav governments in the troubled 1970s. The story of a Yugoslav mini-submarine that had crossed underground the then borders of Albania and the Hague Court that had ruled. "The Yugoslavs are guilty, therefore Albania must pay them 1 million dollars in compensation". One million dollars were granted to Yugoslavia as compensation for exposing the assassin Skënder Kupi. The source of this whole story is again a magazine of private detectives from Belgrade, whose account was recently republished, more precisely on 21 November of this year, by the Kosovo magazine "Zëri".

Story
TIRANE - He wandered about perhaps for days. With this frightening feeling he entered completely alone the thousand "Arlira" after this fixation. The embassy documents. A few hours later he was admitted to the hospital in Brindisi. 4251 AHC has sought the help of doctors to be treated for an illness from which he had lost hope of recovering. He was terribly distressed. During the night the doctors across the Adriatic came forward to find salvation.
Qubet Bledar Osmani, the 16-year-old, has been diagnosed for 36 hours, with successive blood transfusions because the fear is that advanced medicine cannot restore the white blood cells. "In any case, the boy’s condition is still very serious," said the doctors at the "Di Summa" hospital in Brindisi. They will do everything possible to find the cause of this incompatibility.
Meanwhile, the director signed the court order to grant the permit, so that Bledar’s parents can travel as soon as possible to be near their son. "A warmer presence," the hospital doctor concluded, "would help him, from a psychological point of view, but also for a possible check of the organic condition from which the 16-year-old may be suffering." "Thus, after learning the closed paths of the city to be alone, away from the other peers" - the child’s wounds were quoted. Bledar preferred to fight bravely, alone, for his life...
