"When I was 9 years old, I almost died", the rare confession of Fatos
Fatos Nano

While Fatos Nano is hospitalized, Rudina Xhunga has brought back an interview he gave to "Koha Jonë", where he shared some details from his life.

One of them was that Nano almost died when he was only 9 years old.

INTERVIEW:

- How does "Koha Jonje" address you, after leaving prison, Mr. or friend Fatos?

Let's become friends, the better. Perhaps, friend is a less official and more human appellation.

Where were you born and when?

In the Tirana maternity hospital, in September 1952.

Have you been told about any special signs of the day of birth?

It was an ordinary day. Strange signs, I don't know how foreboding appeared later. At the age of 9, my mother gave birth to me once more. While I had collapsed, after a feverish convulsion, and my grandmother thought I was asleep, my mother, newly returned from the school where she taught, with the intuition that only a mother has, snatched me from imminent death and took me on a bicycle beyond any speed of imaginable in the hospital.

Were you an ambitious student at school or...?

My early vision has been to enjoy life without neglecting to prepare for everything I might encounter along the way. I have always accepted and faced challenges, but I cannot say that I have won them all. Ambitious? Of course, in the constructive sense.

- When did you become interested in socialism?

At that time socialism was the beacon idea. Blue sky, where you can play, at least until adolescence. The relationship with the life of my generation has not been very anxious and therefore without many peaks. There were those who wished for the tops until they heard some... police whistle. For example, Fatos Lubonjës and I were expelled from high school for a completely banal event. Some have encountered the restrictions of the regime at an early age and some have not, due to a combination of circumstances.

- Why a student of Political Economy?

I was on the beach, when I was told that I had the right to study political economy. When I asked what economics and politics were looking for together, they explained to me that it had something to do with Marx. Then I looked for a book of his and found Capital. Then with the course of the professional curve, I have established with rational calm that you cannot become an economist without knowing Capital, in the sense of knowing the history of the doctrines of thought, where you can clearly distinguish the turns, or the speculations that have been made with ideas in time different.

-And after the student period, you are still attracted to socialism?

Ideas at all times respond to certain circumstances, and it is an absurdity proven by history to carry a priori conclusions from one era to another, as it imposes the slavery of thought on succeeding generations. Finally, socialism today is an idea, a doctrine, and I would like to single out as its pillar social solidarity, the idea of ​​equal opportunities, or more precisely the mechanism of protection of the marginalized layers of society.

- Do you remember, when you blamed your child, when your mother told you: "You will go to prison one day!"?

-I used to be scared of uncle the policeman, because I saw that he wasn't such a bad uncle when I experienced prison, because even policemen are people who provide for the family's life with their work. However, I also saw uncle Katili, uncle Gogol.

I want to remember that in the last six months before my imprisonment, prison became an almost predictable reality for me and I began to train for isolation from the world, staying for hours alone in the darkness of my room. Three days before the arrest, I pulled aside the mother, who was suffering from heart disease and could suffer a shock because of me, and I said to her: "Mom, anything can happen to me. I don't want you to worry." She answered me shedding two drops of tears: "I blessed you once when you entered this path and I will love you no matter what happens to you. Don't worry about me. I will become strong." He did not manage to follow through on his promise, as age and pain took their toll.

- They say that not all bad things are bad. What good did prison do for you?

-Apparently, only prison was missing for me to consider myself complete and prepared for everything. I had been a lecturer, I had worked in research institutes and near the top of the communist pyramid, which was not so scary, even if you tried bravely to offer something. I worked for three years in an agricultural cooperative in the highlands of Tirana, in the Metallurgical plant of Elbasan, just after I left school, where I also created my family nursery. So all I needed was prison to graciously enjoy the various experiences that life gives you. I'm not saying that now I have to do exactly the same things, to prove again that I can handle them, but I believe it's a completed cycle that allows me to enjoy the rest of my life with optimistic notes.

-What did prison change your character?

-If it comes to character changes, I have become more reflective, more tolerant. Based on personal experience and that of others, I think that when he does a little prison, he comes out angry and vindictive, when he does a medium-term prison, he gains the ability to control emotions and rationality, while there are living examples of what happens to the person after an extended prison./dridare.net
