The Albanian National Unity Party stresses that "it is regretful for a party when it is opposed by the most conscious part of the nation - the students, but it would be a great bad fortune when all the people agree to such a policy, which is evidently not yielding the expected results." The declaration runs that "courageous voices of our well-known patriots and great intellectuals to accelerate concrete actions for the realisation of the independence of Kosova and for the solution to the Albanian question are serious remarks which help overcome the psychology of waiting and the cultivated fear. For this party, it is a special satisfaction that finally the national and political course of this party is being supported by other parties, by potential intellectuals and patriots and especially by the excellent student youth." "The National Unity Party favours more the practical realisation of the national objective than the consolidation of any party or political block with a an extreme national course," the declaration writes at the end. bj/pta/kei/xh/k Albanian Telegraphic Agency[04] PARLIAMENTARY COMMISSION FOR INFORMATION REQUESTS CONVENING OF KOSOVA PARLIAMENTPRISTINA, DEC 27 (ATA) - The parliamentary commission for information in the yesterday meeting requested quick convening of the Kosova Parliament."The big delay does not mean that the Assembly should not convene, and when it is requested more than ever the institutionalization of life in Kosova.
