Albanian Archbishop Targeted by Extremists

Orthodox church Primates and leaders of international Christian organizations are alarmed by the attacks being directed lately against the Archbishop of Albania Anastasios and hierarchs of the Church of Albania. Many clerics speak of actions attempting to denigrate Anastasios due to the tragic events in Himara last August.

This is when 27 -year- old Aristotelis Goumas was murdered. It has been stressed that he was the first to speak of murder when many were trying to attribute this event to a car accident.

The Archbishop himself advises his associates to stay calm and calls to avoid self-redress. He has been accepting supportive telephone calls from many sides, as he is an internationally recognized and accepted figure.

Latest News. According to professor Nikola Pano, International relations in USA, for Arbishop Janullatos, is the times that he, must leave from the head of Orthodox Churche of Albania. During an interview given to the Albanian newspaper "Gazeta Shqiptare", Pano declared his opinion against any archbishop to be Greek over Orthodox Church of Albania. www.balkanweb.com
