Today, 354 days since the murder of the December Leader

The government protects the killers of Azem Hajdari Every day that passes since the murder of Azem Hajdari, the symbol of democracy and pluralism, proves the involvement of the government of Fatos Nano and his successor in the crime that shook the entire Albanian world.

Democrats and all Albanians who loved and honoured Azem Hajdari can in no way tolerate this fact. The government, if it had any decency, would bring the criminals to justice and publicly condemn the fact that it was itself that carried out the murder of Azem Hajdari.
