The Bavarian parliament speaker is welcomed with song The Spahija-Godo folk coalition is broken up by Dokle’s intervention Ali Spahija, the deputy chairman of the PD, “entertained” President of the Bavarian Parliament Johann Bohm quite a bit yesterday when, in the presence of other members of the German delegation and leaders of the Albanian political parties, at the “Rogner” hotel, he began singing a song from southern Albania. The Albanian right responded to Spahija’s voice with the drone of Republican leader Godo, who later, together with Spahija, became somewhat “cornered” when their duet was joined from the left by the voice of socialist Namik Dokle. But the Spahija-Godo-Dokle trio did not work for long, because the two gentlemen abruptly interrupted the folk coalition with comrade Dokle. Dokle’s intervention in the Spahija-Godo duet seems to have been as unexpected as it was unacceptable, and moreover was considered a serious provocation in front of foreigners. Meanwhile, it is not known what the song was, and even less is known about the menu of food and the mixture of drinks that must have caused merriment among the Albanian politicians. What is known for certain is that during the singing the members of the German delegation looked each other in the eye several times and ordered sparkling water for the whole table.
