Three modest glass exhibits have been set up yesterday in the lobby of the National Historic Museum as a sign of the European Day of Victims of Nazism and Stalinism. Two of them with Albanian history of communist persecution, and the other belonged to Nazi terror.
In the symbol of this day, an embroidered jumper from the hands of Sabiha Kasimati was placed in the Albanian glass cabinet, which impressed the beloved pants of the interned Gjon Vutnikaj, dressed in his mother’s hair; Other clothing still preserve the blood stains of young people witnessing the recent events of the communist regime, the killings at the border in the ’90s, by state security.
In addition, the “Nazi” showcase, which is buried with the bullets of the German massacre of Borovska in 1943, where the German Nazis gathered in a house and almost all the men and boys of this village were shot.
At a conference that referred to the European Day of Victims, the director of the National Museum, Dorian Koci, said that we should bring an open debate to see the uncomplicated past.
While Gentiana Sulaj, head of filing authority, further explained that the declassification process has made the most open files, but there are also bookings for them, which according to her relate to national security.
“Our law is the law of transparency. Among many other principles of the law is national security. We consider it as a collegial institution. We assess case by case. Until now, we have not had cases of declining declassification, “said head of file authority Gentiana Sulaj.
The conference was also welcomed by German Ambassador, Suzan Shyt, who recalled the difficult process of opening Stassi’s files in Germany. Shyt said that Albania is a bit late in the process of filing files.
