Hysni Milloshi

Who is Hysni Milloshi?

Hysni Milloshi was the founder and First Secretary of the Communist Party of Albania, successor to the Party of Labor of Albania.

During communist rule, Milloshi, who was a member of the Party of Labour, was a writer and a somewhat obscure figure. He established the Enver Hoxha Voluntary Activists' Union, an organization loyal to the principles and policies of Enver Hoxha, at Berat on 12 February 1991, apparently with the backing of some leading hard-liners in the Party of Labour. The organization waged a prominent and vocal struggle to prevent the unraveling of communist rule. Milloshi was also a modest author and poet.
