The Treasury’s security was removed when Nano was prime minister

Berisha publishes a document from a very senior employee of the Ministry of Public Order, sent to former Deputy Minister of the Interior Ilir Çano on 28.7.1998, with protocol number 1875. This document confirms that the facility was abandoned during the period when Fatos Nano was prime minister. “‘According to the inspection dated 7 January 2000, the gold inventory was carried out only on 1–4 April 2000. So, during January–February–March 2000, the facility was deliberately left to the mercy of fate, or for anyone who wanted to steal from it!’ on page 2

The government protects the killers of Azem Hajdari

Today, 610 days since Azem’s murder Every day that passes since the murder of Azem Hajdari, the symbol of democracy and pluralism, proves the involvement of Fatos Nano’s government and that of his successor in the crime that shook the entire Albanian world. The governments of the former communists, which let the criminals who took the life of the December Leader go free and unmolested, show Albanians that they have been and remain on the side of the killers, who have names and surnames but are untouched by those in power. The Democrats and all Albanians who loved and honored Azem Hajdari can in no way tolerate this fact. The government must either capture the criminals and bring them to justice, or publicly declare that it itself committed the murder of Azem Hajdari.
