Today Albanians across all of Europe commemorated with sorrow the 10th anniversary of the democratic revolutions in Eastern Europe. The spring that is coming, the spring of the rebirth of democracy By Sali BERISHA Today Albanians across all of Europe commemorated with sorrow the 10th anniversary of the democratic revolutions in Eastern Europe and the victory of these brilliant and peaceful revolutions over the most brutal dictatorships in the world. Tirana, our capital, marked it with a demonstration just as large as it was unworthy of its elite. 11 December was remembered even more coldly, because the steps of freedom and power were mutilated in Albania. Tirana was missing hundreds of thousands of free men and women with their eyes on the streets and squares of the capital to honor the Epic, the brave men of December and the heroes of freedom through them. It was a strong stance that showed that after a decade of freedom and democracy, Albania is once again under the hoof of a neo-dictatorship, whose work is contempt for every national value, spitting on every human value, using state power to sow political terror against the opposition. Today, under the noses of a part of the students of the University of Tirana, the government of Fatos Nano, the first in the country since the fall of the Berlin Wall, publicly disqualifies the figure of Azem Hajdari. He was hailed as "an enemy of Albanian democracy" and humiliated by a blind clique, which is defiling his memory. This is the true face of the government that leads Albania. It is a government built on fear, deceit and hatred. It sees pluralism as an obstacle and the opponent as an enemy to be destroyed. For this reason it has decided to fabricate accusations and use torture to strike at the democratic opposition. ... [?] on page 3

Robinson refutes speculation using the OSCE name The OSCE ambassador’s assistant reacts after attacks against PD Full text Mike Robinson, assistant to the OSCE ambassador in Tirana, came out on Thursday with a statement declaring that there is no document in the name of the Democratic Party that can be used for institutional purposes against the government. Mike Robinson described this use of the Democratic Party’s name as untrue and harmful. He said that contacts between OSCE representatives and representatives of political parties in the country are normal for such a mission in a democratic country. According to Robinson, the assistant to the OSCE ambassador in Tirana has never allowed his office to become subordinate to internal party matters, and the attempt to instrumentalize their organization in this way is condemnable. The full text of Mike Robinson’s statement was published on page 8. on page 8
