You just have to improve the statute and will go to a registered conference .

The chairman of OMONOIA underlines the frictions that remain of the Greek minority in the Albanian state. “We have a problem with public order, with the institutions of law and order. The police pushed and causes. Yet the problems with the property. We have problems with the churches, problems with robberies. All are aimed at altering the population in Northern Epirus.
