A FURIOUS PARADOX FADES — War disabled veterans and political invalids were the only ones in Albania who were not granted a pension by the state. — Yesterday's leadership of the blind followed with concern how many people lost limbs or their lives in the name of freedom and democracy, yet after the political and social changes in the country they do not even benefit from those minimal rights that should have been recognized by law. To date, despite the changes, war disabled veterans have remained without a special legal status. Speaking about their situation, representatives of this group stressed that over the past 47 years they had no special law that clearly defined the rights and obligations of the state toward them. In many cases they have been treated unequally and often set aside. According to the visible text on the page, the article continues with arguments for recognizing the status of war disabled veterans, the need for pensions, health care, and social treatment. Part of the text is faint and not fully legible[?], but it is clear that the paradox is emphasized: this category has remained for decades without a special law. (continued on page 4)

Mr. Selami returned to the Homeland The announcement of Mr. Selami's return to the Homeland, according to yesterday's notice, sparked various reactions. The visible text mentions that his return is linked to political developments and to discussions about his previous role. Part of the material is unclear because of the quality of the page and the image orientation[?], but the title and subheading are clearly readable. (continued on page 4)

The article placed in the center of the page refers to Ramiz Alia and Nexhmije. The small print below the title is very difficult to read accurately in this image; however, the title appears legible in this approximate form. The rest of the content remains unreadable[?].

Abbreviations The text in this column is very faint and only the side title can be read with confidence. The rest cannot be fully read in the image[?].
