Today is Youth Day, 33 years since the fall of communism

Today marks the 33rd anniversary of the fall of communism. Since 2009, by decision of the Parliament of Albania, this date is commemorated as a national holiday in honor of all the students of December 1990 and all Albanian youth.

It was December 8, 1990, when a group of students and lecturers of the University of Tirana, residents of the city "Studenti", became the initiators and protagonists of the great historical turning point, the peaceful protests that brought pluralism, the fall of communism and the birth of democracy.

With the expression, "We love Albania like all of Europe!", they demanded the establishment of the system of Western values ​​and the rule of law, integration in Europe and the guarantee of political pluralism as the main basis for a free and democratic society. (A2 Televizion)
