Rudina Hajdari

On the 24th anniversary of Azem Hajdari's murder, his daughter, Rudina Hajdari, brought to attention an episode from her father's memories.

Speaking during the conversation organized in the "Student City" by Berisha about the figure of Azem Hajdar and his mission, Rudina remembered the moment when her father was injured in the parliament and when she went to see him he asked her what grade she got In school.

"When I was very young, 7 years old, dad often came and picked me up from school and he wanted me to be the best in my studies, and to show me some kind of care he came to pick me up. One day he didn't come, I waited a long time in the school yard. A car came and behind the seat I saw a bloody shirt. I found out that he was injured in the parliament, I went to visit him and the first thing he said to me was, Rudina, what grades did you get today. I said how is it possible that in this condition requires me to be accountable and to take care of me. That's how Azemi was, he took care of everyone. No one could stop him because of the care he had for people ," Hajdari said.

Among other things, Rudina Hadari said that her father lived for three things, family, homeland and freedom, and he hated communism above all else.

"It is a pleasure to return here, as I think that this square is one of the most sacred in Albania, as it brought the collapse of the dictatorship. Some in this square are young and Azemi was very young when he took heart and raised his head against the dictatorship. Who lived that time, I know very well what courage was needed to face the regime in the conditions of a student coming from Tropoja. Whoever lived that time knows very well what it means, to organize the students and say ' Down with Communism', 'Freedom, Democracy'. What should we do today, to find that courage and follow that path. In my life, I have deduced that Azemi valued and lived for three things, family, homeland and freedom. He hated communism above all else. You know why, because communism desecrated the family by pitting them against each other. Communism used the motherland as a cow to milk and live well only a handful of people in the block and plunging a handful of people into poverty.
Communism denied freedom to ordinary Albanians, left them speechless, thought and property," declared Rudina Hajdari.
