The Deputy Prime Minister, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Finance, the Interior Minister and even the head of the Intelligence Service have waited in line to give "an account" before "Maqe" Government smuggling prevents Albanian traders from entering Kosovo Minister Angjeli blocks Morina The Minister of Finance, Anastas Angjeli, is registered in commercial activities that go as far as smuggling at the Morina customs post. This is also confirmed by facts obtained by us, which show that in order to do business with government officials, one must get into their line and accept partnership, as foreign companies have done with them. Our data show that at the top of this government pyramid stands the prime minister himself, who not only has full knowledge of these affairs, but personally controls them. Albania, once again behind From the Daily Press According to information coming from the Swiss newspaper in English, "Southeast European Times", based in Sofia, corruption and smuggling in Albania have taken on such proportions that the head of the Albanian executive found it necessary, at the beginning of June, to present a report to the diplomatic corps regarding the anti-corruption operation. According to the Swiss daily, Prime Minister Pandeli Majko is personally monitoring many of the affairs linked to smuggling, as the government is using a large part of Western funds in illegal ways. The newspaper refers to several reports by Western governments, according to which a large amount of foreign aid ends up in certain private channels in Albania. Specifically, it speaks of the sale on the domestic market of fuel sent as aid from Italy and other European countries, the sale in Kosovo of humanitarian aid and construction materials, or the passage of goods duty-free in exchange for bribes. According to the Swiss newspaper, high-ranking Albanian officials and people linked to them have set up special mechanisms to appropriate aid. The cited report emphasizes that customs and law-enforcement structures play an important role in this scheme. Minister Angjeli blocks Morina Another part of the article underlines that Albanian traders are not allowed to cross into Kosovo with goods, while companies linked to government officials receive preferential treatment. According to our sources, deliberate obstacles have been created at the Morina customs post for independent businessmen, while the circulation of smuggled goods is protected. This situation has brought not only economic discrimination, but also a blow to the national interest in relation to the Kosovo market. ON PAGE 6

Today, 296 days since the killing of the leader of the December movement How much longer will it take for the killers of Azem Hajdari? Should they, the friend of the people, be declared criminals? And what about the killers of [sal?]brave[s], the policemen's [ta?]llators? These questions are being raised today by many citizens, since even after many months from the murder of the Democratic deputy Azem Hajdari, the perpetrators and organizers have not been brought before justice. The article shows that the investigation process has been dragged out and that there is a clear lack of political will to fully uncover the event. The murder of Azem Hajdari is presented as one of the most serious political crimes of the Albanian transition, while the government is accused of, through its actions and omissions, obstructing justice.
