“We steal, others govern”

Shemsi PEPOSHI The Socialists’ three-year record in government can very aptly be summed up in the motto: “We steal, foreigners govern.” Ever since coming to power, the government of Mr. Nano, and then the governments of Majko and Meta, have said—and continue to say—that they act this way in carrying out all the duties of a normal government in administering the country, taxes, laws and foreign policy, because they take advice from the countries and international institutions present in Albania on page 5

SP, an ideological election campaign

By Sami NEZA The Socialist Party will conduct an ideological election campaign, lacking arguments that could inspire confidence in left-wing local government. The speech by Socialist leader Fatos Nano in Berat showed, in a way, the strategy the Socialists will pursue against the high moral standing of the Democrats on page 5

The government protects Azem’s killers

Today, 637 days since the murder of the December leader 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 his entourage in the crime that shook the entire Albanian world. The governments of the former Communists, which leave free and undisturbed the criminals who took the life of the Leader of December, show Albanians that they have been and remain on the side of the murderers, who have names and faces but are not touched by those in power. Democrats and all Albanians who loved and honored Azem Hajdari can never tolerate this. The government must either capture the criminals and bring them to justice, or publicly declare that it itself committed the murder of Azem Hajdari.
