Interview - Ramiz Alia speaks one night before his arrest Politically, I can say that we Albanians are harmed enormously in the eyes of the great powers if we hold responsible, at least in our case, all of communism or the entire PPSH for those crimes. In most cases, the crimes of power were committed for the interests of power by a narrow group of the leadership, and not by the communists. Here to fate, and not by the communists. Those all who felt themselves in the ranks of the executors and in the part of the pressures, which unfortunately has been lacking to this day as well. Therefore I say with conviction that even today the real time has not yet come to begin an objective judgment of that period and those political events. In the sessions of the last tribune, if you listened to some discussions, the impression would be created that they are under a threat. There were young people, but also older people who, in order to stir the crowd, used very harsh terms against me and all my collaborators. These irresponsible people, dominated by hatred and anger, speaking in the name of the “people,” have cast mud on our entire life and work. From here arises the question: why? Why, during these years, do people need to rise up with hatred against us? Because the need for balance is felt, because the leadership of the PD headed by Berisha seeks to justify its own failures and to fill its political program with empty words and unfounded accusations. Instead of building a new life on the basis of truth, on the necessary social understanding and forgiveness, a climate of political revenge is being created. Those who do this are very dangerous for the country, because they are destroying every possibility of national reconciliation. They are inciting class and political hatred without any moral or legal basis. page 13 page 12-13

This concerns the period when he and his government in exile were persistently seeking to intervene in Albania’s affairs, as well as their complicated dealings with the British and American missions.
