"Madam President, it is quite right that the municipal elections in Himara were marked by violence and fraud at the expense of the Greek minority living there. That this happened is beyond question. We have the findings of international organisations which monitored the elections.
Albania is a country whose own minorities have suffered persecution at the hands of other countries and, as we all know, the international community reacted to this persecution. It should not repeat inside its borders what it suffered outside its borders; that is, I think, the first lesson in democracy which we should bring to the attention of this country, which is starting to establish an internal democracy. I should like the European Parliament to take note of these violations and, of course, to call for repeat elections in Himara."@en1
