Could these things happen in 2022?
View from Ukraine: Children, the most innocent victims of war

This apparently naive question, surely humanity has asked itself during many dramatic events of its journey, at least in the modern era. The word comes, in the First World War. Even more so in the Second. The inhabitants of the Balkans, much closer in history, were shocked in the 90s with the bloodshed ignited by the wars of the Serbian dictator Milosevic, which began with Croatia and ended with Kosovo. Even closer, the Albanians of 1997 even today wonder how they slipped into that chaos and collapse of the state, of public order and of the social fabric itself, even though they know the causes well.

Today Europe and the world close the year 2022 with the 10th month of a bloody war in Ukraine; but also full of blood in other areas of the globe. Let's remember, it was a year that started with the hope of ending the Covid-19 pandemic and the optimism of returning to the normality of development, modernization and increasing the quality of life.

So how is it possible that rockets are launched, children, women and civilians are killed, soldiers are sent as cannon fodder to the front in 2022?

Certainly there are, and will be opportunities, as long as authoritarian regimes and war-mongering dictators exist, and as long as they smell signs of weakness and cracks in the fabric of world order. Regardless of the era in which humanity lives; that of the Internet and the digital world, or horse-drawn carriages. The United States itself just went through a severe test of the rule of law, and is still trying to manage and understand the surprise attack on democratic institutions on January 6, 2021. How could this happen to America?

If every bad thing has a good one, in the case of the democratic world, the Russian aggression has reinforced the cohesion of the European Union and the West in general. It has also returned attention to the Balkans, where the potential for crisis recycling remains always high.

But - and here I am talking about Albania - the increased doses of EU and US attention cannot be experienced passively. The lack of a real check and balance, an anemic opposition that reproduces promises of reforms while still being led by political dinosaurs, a government that does not give accounts because there is no one to ask them, a reform in justice that still seems to have remained in the attempt... all these do not bring mere passivity, but fatigue and hopelessness. And consequently, departure, mass flight, especially of young people, making Albania the third country in the world for the largest diaspora abroad. And this happens when, on paper, we have taken serious steps towards EU integration.

Could anyone have thought that this would happen in Albania in 2022? The government says yes, and even calls it more normal...
