RBA: Government to cease silence on chauvinism

The Red and Black Alliance asked the Albanian government to intervene
and ask Greece to stop the grave provocations of radical chauvinist
circles who organize provocative ceremonies such as the one that
decorated the former Greek consul, Ikonomus, for his contribution in
“greekifying” the Vorio Epirus.

“A few days ago, the Foundation of Diaspora Greeks decorated the former Greek consul, Ikonomus, who is notorious in Albania for his radical declarations for the Vorio-Epiruw. The motivation was: ‘For distinctive services in ‘greekifying’ Vorio-Epirus’. This honor was given to him for assimilating southern Albanians, by changing their nationality. The behavior of this extremist group is an open threat to the Albanian territory, and this clearly shows the real intention of the ‘innovative’ population registration on ethnic and religious bases. Therefore, our stance against ethnic and religious population registration mainly protects our national and state identity”, declared the representatives of the Red and Black Alliance.
