Albania lifts the embargo: Shkodra opens the borders

Trade with Montenegro is now free SHKODËR - "Goodbye embargo." And this time it can be said officially. A simple letter from the Customs Directorate in the capital has led Shkodra to open its doors to goods for its residents. The customs posts at Qafë Prushit, Kukës and Shkodra - including Hani i Hotit and Buza - will now be completely open to passage. Hope for the north... Now, with what once involved some of the strongest deals for trading oil and gasoline, the people of Shkodra will make trade without sacrifices. On page 3 Shkodra

"Mediterranean Night": Gjebrea scores a success

Ciko speaks after returning from Italy: "A well-chosen selection" TIRANË - "Bravo!" for the Albanian song in Palermo. Among representatives from the various Mediterranean countries, Ardit Gjebrea and the group "Projekt Jon" sounded original. Songs accompanied by video footage too, in the concert that ended shortly before midnight on Saturday, before a huge audience. During the two hours in the hall of the "Politeama" Theatre, there were fewer than half without technical defects, to the delight of the audience. "Mediterranean Night" drew the attention of the European, Asian and African communities. Together Italy and Algeria, France and Tunisia, Israel and Palestine... On stage, and Albania too. "A well-chosen selection." That is how Arjan Ciko, the artistic director of RTV, described Gjebrea's composition, speaking to "Gazeta Shqiptare". A significant manifestation of the Albanian song in the center of Europe had within it undeniable authenticity and a modern spirit, Ciko stated. "The song was a portrait of the place, the activity aimed at the Mediterranean, bringing it as close as possible to the reality of the country from which it comes." During the performance of Saturday's compositions, images were shown of the main archaeological and geographical aspects of the country to which it belonged. A gesture was made toward the statistics of the singers. The performance of this scene, as well as in the video. At the "Politeama", local singers were absent, but also not prepared Greek or Maltese ones. Their absence was offset by the videos shown. While only a few Arbëreshë managed to reach the "selected" audience. An evening in which all technique nevertheless "buzzed", except for part of the songs with "play back". 8,ym
