World: ALBANIA: STALIN'S HEIR
(3 of 3)
Albania has repeatedly defied giant neighbors from Rome to the Byzantine Empire to the all-conquering Turks. Even under Communism it seems to have lost none of its old talent for chip-on-the-shoulder recklessness. But whether or not Enver Hoxha will get away with it depends not on him but upon decisions being made in faraway Red China. For what is at issue is not the submission of Albania to Khrushchev but that of Peking. For the time being, Hoxha continued to denounce Khrushchev as a traitor to Marxism, while Red China's Peking Review proclaimed: "Albania will always stand like a giant holding the southwestern outpost of the Socialist camp."
