Rising tension from Greek soldiers' anti-Albanian song



Tirana, March 7, 2007 – Protests against Greek soldiers' anti-Albanian song is rising in Albania while politicians have called for a contained and calm response.
In Durres and Elbasan, protesters burned Greek flags while the entire population is bewildered by the level of hatred and violence in the text of Greek Soldiers' song.
A private video showing Greek soldiers singing "We are gone a make shoe-strings with Albanian guts" was published last week on the Internet, then was commented by the Greek and Albanian media.
Foreign Relations committee in the Albanian Parliament called Thursday on the population to stop burning Greek flags, commenting the video as an isolated case. Head of the Committee, Prec Zogaj, said that Albanians need to wait till the end of the investigation by the Greek government over the authenticity of the video.In Athens, the Greek government expressed doubts about the authenticity of the video.
Meanwhile, a Greek general told newspapers that the army had stopped using hate songs against neighbors six years ago. The video, which was at the source of the scandal, was recently removed from YouTube’s webpage by the person’s personal page where it was published.
