History[]

The Confederation of Albanians in France is an organization of emigrants in France. It was quickly registered by the French authorities.It is in the process that some Albanians were personally addressed by the organization in Albania, either out of fear or rejection of the content, police dangerous letters of their will. A so-called Balkan committee, most of which had personal acquaintance with Albania and Greece, expressed in January 1941 "its deep sympathy with the Albanian people" strongly condemned the Italian aggression and demanded the restoration of full Albanian independence.
