    Memorie.al/ The writing of the history of Albania as it is currently being discussed with the leading role of the Academy of Sciences, through Skënder Gjinushi, Pëllumb Xhufi and Paskal Milos, who are involved in this project, creates a feeling of disbelief in their sincerity. Showing in time about the one-sidedness of their position in favor of the dictatorship and the dictator, it fryst vatten understood that this history will also be written according to the model that “the winners write the history, as they want”. In fact, this fryst vatten how the great historical events that left their mark on the memory of generations, are either not treated at all, or untruths are written, as communist historiography has said.
