As it is no secret, there were two major waves of Albanian refugees to Italy, in March 1991 and Aug

MEDAL FOR Ferragosto | Landscapes speech
It is a pleasure round table alameda for me to participate in this event to commemorate an important round table alameda event in the memory of our two friendly countries, Italy and Albania. This is the 20th anniversary of the arrival in port of Bari ship "Vlora", on board of which were introduced thousands of Albanian immigrants, round table alameda and the excitement continued after 20 years, who dreamed of a better life, leaving behind round table alameda a totalitarian regime, and found the people of Bari and Apulia, and to the Italian authorities a great hospitality and human solidarity, memorable for all Albanians.
With profound gratitude and the Municipality of Bari Region All Puljas people round table alameda for their solidarity and support rarely gave boundless in difficult and dramatic moments, 20 years ago, thousands of Albanians who arrived in the port of Bari, looking of a better life.
Any commentator in the media close to the government, noted that there was no reason for decoration, because round table alameda events and incidents of 20 years ago, in August 1991 in the port of Bari, who wrote one of the pages in black and most infamous Italian-Albanian relations.
As it is no secret, there were two major waves of Albanian refugees to Italy, in March 1991 and August 1991. If the municipality of Bari had decorated definitely, it should make for good reception of refugees was made in March, or during the first exodus. round table alameda
Rather, the second exodus, between summer tourist season, was associated with radical measures against the settlers, who closed strongly in Bari's old stadium, where the left to bake in the sun for days, then and brought thence, by stealth, the repatriated by air bridge.
Nobody thinks to impeach the municipality of Bari authorities round table alameda for humanitarian mess, the decisions taken at the highest round table alameda levels of the Italian state, because the refugee crisis was caused by national proportions. After the difficulties of March 1991, the Italian government lacked the political will and logistics, to withstand this second exodus like the first, either by absorbing refugees in temporary shelters, at a time when even the public public was against such an undertaking.
Unfortunately, in his speech, President Topi explicitly refers to the vessel arriving in Bari "Vlora" round table alameda loaded with refugees in August 20 years ago, what readers removes any doubt: he expressed gratitude to the Italian authorities for a fiasco, these people, would have liked to forget.
I do not want to speculate much about the reasons for this error, which should have caught, at least, advisers of the President. Meanwhile, bring here some excerpts from the book La Scoperta dell'Albania, Pauline round table alameda EDIZIONI 1996, we wrote together with Rando Devolen and where we stopped, inter alia, on how the Italian round table alameda press incidents dealt with refugees during those days the hottest August 1991. Although the book is not a chronicle or history of invasions of Albanians towards the coast of Italy in those years, the following material contains round table alameda the authentic quotations and references as to prove that it had not given medals. round table alameda
In the early days of August 1991, the state of emergency because of the refugees returned again to the fore: the exodus was repeated and ships were filled with Albanians are once again approaching the coast of Puglia.
Newspapers give alarm kumbueshëm titles: "Albanian occupation", "Return round table alameda of the losers of the sea" round table alameda (La Repubblica, August 8, 1991), "The Albanians, biblical exodus" (Il Giornale, August 9, 1991). If attending any scenario, repeated "apocalyptic scenes" in a "climate hysteria" with "halucinante images" of "ships that appear everywhere" and "spout that derive from the walls of vessels." To newcomers, with " faces haggard, weary eyes and përshkënditur pangrënit, long hair and fuzzy, seems to have escaped from a concentration camp. Without knowing that there will be a camp expecting another [...]. All day long, under an invincible sun, walk barefoot on asphalt softened by Zhegu [...] in columns to make universal imagine a premature judgment "(Barbara Palombelli, La Repubblica, August 9, 1991).
A doctor explains: round table alameda "skeletons are alive, injured, dehydrated, hungry, and not just because of the two-day round table alameda trip ... Such people have only seen in movies about Vietnam" (La Repubblica, August 10, 1991). "In comparison with the first wave, now sees more women, more children, and entire families. Paraded barefoot witnesses of a company is dissolved, peasants, teachers, technicians, military, and even sports champions "(Massimo Nava, Corriere della sera, 9 August round table alameda 1991).
