Other documents in the file cover reaction to a book on the Anglo-American Threat to Albania written by the Albanian leader, Enver Hoxha, who has criticised Britain's wartime record in the region; a speech by the Albanian prime minister, Adil Çarçani, critical of Britain; and discussions on the mysterious death of the previous Albanian prime minister, Mehmet Shehu. The file also includes an enquiry about Albanian papers held by the British Public Records Office; and reports that West Germany and Canada are in talks with Albania to restore diplomatic relations.
