Unfortunately, earlier, the authorities of all levels obviously would not have noticed the growing threat of fascism; moreover, they often indulged the growth of pro-fascist aspirations in the society...

In July, WFP released an urgent plea for more aid. In fact, a shipment from the U.S. Agency for International Development had already arrived the previous September, but the food was held up at the main St. ... >> full...
