Ahmed Zogu understoond Albanians rather be with West than turn towards East. On 1 September 1928 he abandoned his Turkish name Ahmed, together with the 'u' from Zogu and crowned himself Ahmet Zog I, King of Albanians, of a contitutional and hereditary Albania."
"Pasa Esad Toptani is a dark figure among Albanians. Majority of his contibutions served interests of 'Le Porte' rather of Albanians in some cases heavily damaging those of Albanians to blame him later as traitor."
