Washington Post shows both Kosovo and Serbia helping Albania: Tragedy Unites Nations

Tuesday's earthquake in the early hours of the morning left many victims, wounded and homeless people. But he also left in the country's history a difficult wound.

The Washington Post in its published article today writes about the help various countries have given to Albania by both financial and military means, clothing, and food.

The renowned American media has stressed that forces from Kosovo and Serbia -- the two countries known for the dispute -- also participated in rescue operations.

Very soon, specialised rescue crews were coming according to all planning. One of the most surprising was a team of 13 people from Serbia, a country of traditionally poor relations with Albania due to ongoing disputes about Kosovo”, the WP writes.

In a way, the well-known media have compared this situation to that of Greece and Turkey, where after they were hit by devastating earthquakes, regardless of relations, they were forced to help each other.

Sometimes it's the power indiscriminately and destruction of natural disasters that unites nations. A notable example was when Greece and Turkey rushed to help each other after devastating earthquakes struck each country in less than a month in 1999”, the report said.

We remember that Albania on November 26th has been hit by a powerful quake of 6.4 degrees, with unfortunately a total of 51 victims and more than 900 injured.

On the other hand, thousands of people from Durres, Tirana and Thumana have been left without a peak over their heads, where most of them have been sheltered at the government's established social centres, while hundreds of others are also finding refuge in Kosovo.
