The Yalta spiderweb is broken; now, a different Balkans. Blair: Albania is now charting a new democratic future
TIRANA—As I have said before, and repeat now, if there is one good thing that can come out of this conflict, from this terrible evil and from the earthquakes Milosheviçi has caused, it is that we use it as a turning point for the entire Balkan region; that we can establish a program of reconstruction, of regeneration, as I call it, which we are now considering so that we can present it to people, and which will allow the countries of this region to embrace the values of democracy. To embrace the values of democracy. So that they may have a future with Europe, with NATO, with the more prosperous countries than they are at present, and share these basic values. PAGES 2, 3, 4, 5
