The apparent calmness, the Conference opened with, broke up at the end, when two clans did not find the unity at the moment the SP presidency introduced the two candidates for SP chairman for Tirana branch. Some of the delegates, supporters of Fatos Nano, began to shout and quarrel using their fists about the way the candidates should be chosen. The meeting offered different opinions for the number of candidates who were to be voted. According the list of the introduced candidates, names of Kastriot Islami, who became an SP member only two months ago in Durres, supporter of Nano and that of Enver Reci had been removed. Two other candidates were proposed to the Conference, the present chairman Musa Ulqini and Spartak Poci both opponents of the SP leader. The nervousness and quarrelling went so far that some delegates in a protest against the presidency's acts left the conference saying "this are like the PLA conferences. "The presidency offered for candidates two Enverists" said a delegate while leaving the hall. Another delegate said that "Ulqini had the great merit of organising the SP gathering on July 30, 1993" when the former prime Minister Fatos Nano was arrested under the charge of abusing the office. This aggravated situation came right after the quietness which followed the report and the discussions. The report only described the SP activity in Tirana, stressing that important achievements were to be noted. It gave no suggestions and made no objections as decided in the SP Leading Committee of Tirana branch, just to cover the SP splits inside it. Opposing opinions were presented and many objections were made during the discussions on the report. The SP deputy chairman Servet Pellumbi at the beginning of his address opposed Nano's expression in his motion, saying that "the SP has not remained in stagnant waters." He continued saying "I congratulate the resignation of the SP Secretary General Gramos Ruci" adding that "I have prepared a statement like it and think to keep my word." In his opinion about the last developments inside the SP he said, "the experience of the public debate is being introduced in the party and this is not a sign of a deep crisis. In the motion and the proposals for deep changes in the statute there are often contradictory opinions." Speaking about the local elections and the boycott of the multi-party round table Pellumbi said "when elections are discussed Berisha, government and the DP are not to be trusted and we will not tolerate them. Unless all our requests are fulfilled, we will boycott the elections." According to political analysts the SP has boycotted the talks because of its inner split. As Mico Papadhopulli in his discussion was saying "the SP renovation is being carried out by approaching the Marxist-Leninist and Enver Hoxha's ideas with the European social democratic ones" an Enverist from one of the galleries said "here are gathered all cowards, who do not defend the figures of Enver and Ramis Alia." Ferdinand Arapi, in his discussion said that "the SP is the main political opposition force in Albania, but Nano's motion after elections has disturbed the party's quietness." While Arben Duka said that "the leaders are uttering slanders against each other to create clans of supporters, and the opinion we lost the elections because we have a conservative presidency is getting shape." "I do not see any change in the statute" said another one "except leaders' rotation. We should avoid the quarrels Nano-presidency." The conference also discussed about FRESH (Albanian Youth Eurosocialist Forum) which, according to those who discussed had not worked well. "Zeri i Popullit" newspaper was also criticised and called "Sleeping and super bureaucratic, because it has lost itself and the edition which had greatly decreased compared with previous period." After many discussions at the end of the voting procedure the conference reelected Musa Ulqini its chairman. ksh/fh/ Albanian Telegraphic Agency[03] DEMONSTRATIVE MOVEMENTS OF SERBIAN MILITARY FORCES IN MALISHEVPRISTINE, AUGUST 17 (ATA) - Several military lorries transporting some hundreds of armed troops, moved Thursday at about 15.00 hours, on the roads of Malishev, said the Centre of Information for Kosova.The military lorries, accompanied by heavy artillery and other armoured means have been stationed some days ago near Ostbrozub.
