Interview of Finance Minister Dr. Arben Malaj given to the newspaper's editor-in-chief Luan M. Rama "I always stand face to face with colleagues. For those who attacked Albania, the shame remains theirs. We, as a parliamentary group, will only present arguments, confrontations and concrete figures. I am ready for any clarification and responsibility, as well as for any clarification before the Albanian parliament. I am as proud as I was in March 1997, I am just as calm in the face of foolish accusations, I am just as calm, I am ready to be investigated for every action. I am as optimistic as people understand me, while certain individuals with other narrow interests stay awake at night seeking convincing accusations and motions of no confidence". PAGE 3
