Thousands of martyrs will be remembered as the country's deliverers after they sacrificed everything for Albania's freedom.
Albanian politics celebrates the country's Freedom Day again, even though November 29th is the official date of the day's commemoration.
Left respect 28 November as Independence Day and November 29th as Freedom Day, while the right commemorates both holidays on November 28th.
The debate on the Day of Liberation remains heated in Albanian politics, where the right follows the same pattern as during its first governing mandate, when it changed the date of Liberation from November 29th to November 28th, after, according to her, it was chosen by the communist regime by counterfeiting history.
But November 29th regained its liberation day status when the left came to power in the summer of 1997, when, with a special law, he returned to the official holiday.
Albania in World War II was one of the countries occupied by the Nazi bloc. In late November 1944, after Tirana's liberation and many other cities, Shkodra, also known in history as the last city to win the battle with the enemy, was managed on November 29th.
