Albania Is regarded as strategic advanced Russian outpost on the Mediterranean Sea. It would be useful in any Communist movement against’ Yugoslavia and Greece from Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria.

Albania also is looked on as a prime source of supply for Italian Communists. The Russian-built naval and submarine base at Saseno Island is a potential threat against Italy’s undefended east coast.

They are in full control, except in the mountains. where tough, illiterate mountaineers defy or ignore the Communist Tulers, According to reports filtering into Italy, any defiance by the hill folk is passive. No active resistance is known to exist in Albania. Members of the few missions from the West permitted to enter Tirana, capital of Albania, which borders the eastern Adriatic shore, never have been allowed outside the city. The country’s estimated 1.2 million inhabitants! find Russians everywhere. Other world developments:
