As Albanian euphoria wore off, the continuing chaos and profiteering of Albanian gangsters and some demobilized KLA fighters began to feel oppressive to ordinary Albanians. In a situation where thousands of heavily armed men roam the countryside and wreak havoc among the civilian population with virtually no central authority to control them, it is urgent to have these elements disarmed, demobilized and reintegrated into civilian life. Young or old, clad in the cheap windbreakers of the working stiff or the hoodies of the wannabe gangster, they display a nervous indolence that suggests stress, underemployment, the volatile boredom of the demobilized. |
