Albanian prime minister and two cabinet members, foreign minister Paskal Milo and defence minister Luan Hajdaraga reported to the parliament late yesterday on the efforts of the government in resolving the Kosova crisis peacefully as well as measures undertaken to face a possible spillover of the conflict. To the parliament has been daclared that "Albania is being prepared for the worst scenario" ... which implies total war not an Albanian-Serbian one but a war, which will engulf the whole region and expected to have a higher cost.

Foreign minister Milo declared that "the failure of ambassador Holbrooke in Belgrade puts Albania in a very delicate situation in the days to come, therefore NATO intervention is necessary"...

Head of the parliamentary foreign commission Sabri Godo stressed the necessity for the establishment of some special structures of emergency which could face the needs in any situation. He protested against the stance of the Macedonian government on the closure of the border with Kosova, an attitude, which deserves to be strongly condemned by the Albanian government. Deputies of the Socialist majority voiced their support for the efforts of the Albanian government in facing a conflict with Serbia saying that they would join the army if it was needed.
