"We are gathered here to honor the work and sacrifice of all Albanian patriots who 77 years ago defeated the enemy to catapult us triumphantly into a new era, with a world between free nations and above all to embody the weight of the act of unity and union. But there are also those hysterias that want to divide us, wanting to combine the dark period of post-war communism with the golden period of unification and the sacrifice of the anti-fascist national liberation war. We as the Socialist Party together with the righteous citizens who know how to judge history on facts and not on rumors and gossip. The best way to honor their sacrifice is for us to continue to stand united to move forward in Albania's transformation process,
