Speculations about the Federation

EDITORIAL By Shemsi PEPOSHI The comments by PD chairman Sali Berisha at the National Assembly concerning the rights of Albanians, communication and exchanges among them, and how they are treated where they live, continue to be the subject of much speculation—not only in the left-wing press, but also among left-wing politicians, right up to the Foreign Minister. According to a very simple logic, even if Berisha’s statements had been made as the leftists claim, it would have been more “normal” for the first negative reactions, or comments similar to those made by the left and moderate leftists such as Mediu and Godo, etc., to come from abroad, namely from our neighbors on page 5

The government protects Azem Hajdari’s killers

Today, 398 days since the murder of the December Leader Every day that passes since the murder of Azem Hajdari, the symbol of democracy and pluralism, it becomes increasingly clear that the culprit behind this murder is the regime, which creates Albanian criminal gangs at the highest level. The present government is an Albanian government. The present government is a government that protects the killers and does nothing to solve Azem Hajdari’s murder. The government cannot tolerate criminals and gangs who come out into the open and kill for criminal interests; otherwise, it must leave once and for all, because it itself created Azem Hajdari’s killers.
