BBC Macedonian - Ethnic Macedonians in Albania (1)
Uploaded by: Makedonier
Video Description:
The BBC radio in Macedonian language broadcasted 2003 a report about the situation of the ethnic Macedonians in Albania.
Albania recognizes the Macedonians as an ethnic minority and delivers primary education in the Macedonian language in the border regions (Mala Prespa, Golo Brdo, Gora) where most ethnic Macedonians live. In the 1989 census, 4,697 people declared themselves Macedonians, but Macedonian organizations
allege that the government undercounts the number of ethnic Macedonians in Albania and that they are politically underrepresented - there are no ethnic Macedonians in the Albanian parliament. Some say that there has been disagreement among the Slavophone Albanian citizens about their being members
of a Macedonian nation as a significant number of these Slavophones are Torbesh and self-identify as Albanians. External estimates on the population of Macedonians in Albania include 10,000, whereas Macedonian sources have claimed that there are 120,000 - 350,000 ethnic Macedonians in Albania. It s
hould be noted that ethnic Albanians in the Republic of Macedonia, who are demanding for more rights, have more minority rights and better living conditions than the ethnic Macedonians in Albania. Voices were being raised in the Republic of Macedonia that the minority of the ethnic Albanians should
recieve more rights only if the minority rights of the ethnic Macedonians in Albania are more improved (reciprocity). http://www.macedoniansinalbania.org/
