Meta’s club government
The Political Bureau returns. Xhelil Gjoni (junior), Minister of Defense
In all the ministries handling tenders, the chiefs are close friends of the prime minister. Ilir Meta, Mustafa Muçi, Ilir Zela and Sokol Nako—the mafia circle.

The government protects Azem’s killers
Today, 663 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 its successor in the crime that shook the entire Albanian world.
The governments of the former communists, who held all the criminal[?] powers, have abandoned the December Leader; they show Albanians that they were and are on the side of the murderers, who have names and surnames but are untouched by those in power. Democrats and all Albanians who loved and honored Azem Hajdari can never tolerate this criminal act. The government must either apprehend the criminals and bring them to justice, or publicly declare that it itself committed the murder of Azem Hajdari.
