THE NATIONAL MOVEMENT AT THE TIME OF THE PARIS PEACE CONFERENCE: AVERTING A NEW PARTITION

Summary/Abstract: The end of World War I was anxiously but hopefully anticipated by activists of the Albanian question. However, Albanian territories still remained occupied, this time, by the Entente armies. Following the withdrawal of the Austro-Hungarian forces, a contingent of ally troops under French command was positioned in Shkodra. The French were also present in the Korca region, whereas the rest of Albania’s territory was under the control of Italian troops. Meanwhile, Serbia and Greece, who sided with the Allies, despite not engaging in military action, expected the Paris Peace Conference to satisfy their claims over those Albanian territories which they had failed to annex following the London Conference of 1913.
