Brothers, enjoy joining an election list in Montenegro!

Opinion by Ramiz Ladrovci

National unity has been and remains the concern of each Albanian visionary, the more, in politics, when it takes courage, even the will to overcome personal interests.

The joint list for the August 30th elections reached by Albanian political forces, associations, natives and intellectuals in Montenegro was very encouraging news. So much more, for those of us who don't live there, especially our diaspora.

This unity, will praise us today and forever, because, the union, throughout our history, has produced positive effects, good effects and history has marked and rewarded with memories, occasions that have made us proud, just as we had cases before certain decensions and here.

Today, and always, Albanians in Montenegro, should be proud of their past and present, for the next day of their children, grandchildren and great - grandchildren, so unity should be the top story, today and here.

Ulqini, this Mediterranean queen for centuries, Tivar of legends, Scuza, the entire heroic Kraa, Anna of Mali, Rozhaja and Plava, Gucia and Ali Pasha, must always be together, at any time and every circumstance, from Buna to Dacaj.

Kosovo has felt through the centuries the presence of the spirit of Albanians on this side, felt suffering and persecution, burned over Ulcinj, displacement of population, violence and denationalisation, but was confident that heroic stability would prevail and peace would come.

Kosovo has felt the bravery of the sons and daughters of these lands since history was done with the sword, from 1878,81, 1912, 1981, 1989, 1998-1999. It has felt the spirit of knowledge, courage and confidence of the army of teachers, scholars and academics who have raised national and Kosovo's interest to merit levels, so, every patriot, together felt this union and unity of Albanian political parties.

Brothers and sisters in Montenegro,

The Union has brought historic results in Tuz, in the Presevo Valley, in Bujanoc, in northern Macedonia, so it will also produce results in Montenegro. I want to express deep respect for all my friends who contributed to this union.

Your Union will be good news that Albanians, always in all lands where they live, will be united, not only on a list, but also under one flag, our flag, red and black.

I want to express my deep respect for my friends the leaders of political parties who joined the Joint List, the leaders of institutions, all those who are found in Kosovo next door, when we had the most difficult, who lived the unity and horror of war, and the joy of winning the Kosovo Liberation Army.

In particular, I am proud of the extraordinary contribution of the Albanian diaspora, my friends to the country from which our sun arose, America, our Montenegrin-born diaspora, which was exemplary and the loyal line of Dede Jo Luli and the brave Deciqit.

Proud of the now proven unity and the Albanian List, which make up the Albanian Alternative, the New Democratic Force, the Albanian Democratic League, the civic Movement perspective and the Tuzi Union. Congratulations, friends, brothers.

You made us proud, well done Nick Gilosha, Nazif Cong, Nicole Camaj, Fadil Kajosaj and Amir Holaj. National interest is greater and more important than the interest of a party or a civic movement.

Albanians in Montenegro, vote for the Albanian Union List, vote as never before for unity. Unity makes each vote, everywhere, regardless of beliefs, because, better than Albanian, no one is presenting your will.

From the heart, I wish you success.

Brothers, enjoy joining an election list in Montenegro!
