When Greek troops stole grain from Albanian farmers and shot at Albanian troops after the Peace Conference of 1946

Written by Petrit Latifi

In 1946, during the Peace Conference after the end of World War 2, Greek troos were reported to have fired at Albanian patrols and stealing grain from Albanian farmers.

“… since the opening of the Peace Conference in Paris. In just five days of August there were almost as many provocative border incidents as there were in January, February and March 1946. Thus, on August 1, near Mount Klinari, a group of Greek soldiers attacked an Albanian patrol. On August 2, near the village of Vidohovo, armed Greek soldiers tried to take away grain mown by Albanian farmers by firing at Albanian patrols.”
