For eternity The fallen of the people The Albanian, closely bound to freedom, honor, and the homeland, has shed his blood through the centuries for them. Wherever he has lived on his own lands, at the doorstep of his home and far away, he has fallen to defend the hearth, the flag, the language, and national dignity. The fall of the martyrs is not a simple human loss; it is a testament and a lasting reminder to the people. In our national history, the blood of freedom has become the very foundation of freedom itself. Entire generations of fighters, partisans, patriots, and simple sons of this land have given their lives so that Albania might live. In the difficult days of occupation, in our mountains and cities, in prisons and internment camps, with blood was written what we today call freedom. The memory of the fallen cannot be dimmed by time. On the contrary, the farther we move from the day of their sacrifice, the stronger our duty becomes not to forget them. They did not seek glory for themselves, but a better future for the country. Therefore, honoring the martyrs is honoring freedom itself. On these days of remembrance, we bow with respect before the fallen of the people. Their blood is not covered by oblivion. It remains in the foundations of Albania and in the conscience of the nation as a call for responsibility, unity, and love of country.

(1) According to one of the sources of information, which speaks about the upcoming local elections, the most important task of the political forces is to create normal conditions for their development. Any exclusionary mentality, any party prejudice, and any attempt to view the new institutions through the narrow interests of the day not only harms political debate, but also slows down the process of institutionalizing democracy. In a society that has just emerged from the monist system, the application of law and respect for institutions is a fundamental condition. Democracy is not built with endless doubts, but with accepted rules, fair competition, and public responsibility. It requires political culture and a willingness to compromise where the general interest demands it. Party prejudices create unnecessary tension and feed citizens' distrust of the state. For this reason, political forces should avoid exclusionary language and work for institutional stability. (continued on page 4)

Forward to the People's Assembly These deputies, with parliamentary experience, democratic culture, and a sense of national responsibility, must rise to the task of carrying reforms forward and building a state governed by law. The country needs calm, order, and an opposition and a majority that measure their strength through programs, not noise. Albania needs work, production, a revived economy, and real democracy. It does not need demagoguery, political chatter, and pointless quarrels that drive citizens away from trusting politics. In this sense, the new parliament must be a tribune of reason and responsibility. (continued on page 4)

FATHER, WE WILL TELL THE DUELS AFTER THE SON...... In Peza, in this place rich in the symbolism of resistance, the commemoration of 5 May took on the dimensions of a warm human and civic gathering. Residents, veterans, families of martyrs, and young people came together to remember with respect those who gave their lives for freedom. The atmosphere of the ceremony was simple, yet heartfelt. The words about the martyrs did not sound like a formula, but as part of the community's daily life. Where history is still close to the people, memory becomes more vivid and moral duty greater. Peza retains the special honor of being linked in national memory to sacrifice and to the organization of the war. This makes every visit and every tribute in this place even more meaningful.
