Albania Lost...

The Times Demands Great Responsibility

The Socialist Party is a great party, with great values! Tritan Shehu is not the only one dreaming of the breakup of the Socialist Party. His childish elation follows a familiar constant in the leadership of the PD, headed by Berisha, for whom the Socialist Party has always been the main target of attacks and blows, with the sole aim of dividing, destroying and eliminating it.

The Force of the State Won

Even on October 20, as on May 26 In the local elections, the PD once again demonstrated that it maintains power through state violence. All the machinery, all the means and mechanisms at its disposal are not working to advance democracy, but to create the conviction that “whether willingly or by force, the PD will not leave power.” Page 2
