The Balli Kombëtar (literally ''National Front'') was an Albanian nationalist, anti-communist and anti-monarchist organization established in November 1942. It was led by Ali Këlcyra and Midhat Frashëri. The motto of the Balli Kombëtar was: "'" (Albania for the Albanians, Death to the Traitors).〔Albania in Occupation and War: From Fascism to Communism 1940-1945 by Owen Pearson ()〕 Finally Balli Kombëtar joined Nazi puppet government and fought as an ally against antifascist guerrilla groups.〔Agnes Mangerich, Albanian escape, 2010, 6〕〔, Bideleux Robert & Jeffries Ian, The Balkans - A post - communist History, 2007, 525〕 ==History== With Italy on the brink of defeat in 1942, the Albanian National Liberation Movement (LNC) and the Balli Kombëtar organized a meeting in the village of Mukje. The Balli Kombëtar entered into a fragile alliance with the communist-led LNC, and acted as a resistance group against the Italians. Following the Mukje Agreement, the vague mutual tolerance that had existed between the Ballists and Communists quickly evaporated.The Allies too could not guarantee that Kosovo would be a part of Albania,〔(Between Serb and Albanian: a history of Kosovo by Miranda Vickers )〕 because they stood for the restoration of occupied nations under their borders as they existed prior to World War II. Despite their hatred of the occupiers, the Ballists feared that an Allied victory in the war might well result in Communist control of Albania. Their lukewarm attitude towards the British was also fostered by their desire to preserve the ethnically united Albanian state under the borders drawn by the Italians in 1941, for they bitterly opposed and dreaded the loss of Kosovo and Debar to Yugoslavia once again, and feared that the Allies in their support of the Greeks might prevent them from claiming Chameria and deprive them of their southern provinces of Korçe and Gjirokaster, the heartland of their liberation movement.〔 They regarded the Yugoslavs and the Greeks as their real enemies.〔 The Mukje Agreement immediately triggered a hostile reaction from the Yugoslav representative in Albania, Svetozar Vukmanoviċ. He denounced the agreement and put pressure on the LNC to repute it immediately,〔(Albania in the twentieth century: a history, Volume 2 by Owen Pearson )〕 and Yugoslav Communist leader Milovan Đilas subsequently described the Balli Kombëtar as "Albanian Fascists".〔(Albania at war, 1939-1945 )〕 The Balli Kombëtar, which had fought against the Italians, were threatened by the superior forces of the LNC and the Yugoslav Partisans, who were backed by the Allies.〔(Tito, Mihailović, and the allies, 1941-1945 By Walter R. Roberts )〕 In the autumn of 1943, Nazi Germany occupied all of Albania after Italy was defeated. Fearing reprisals from larger forces, the Balli Kombëtar made a deal with the Germans and formed a "neutral government" in Tirana which continued its war with the LNC and the Yugoslav Partisans.〔Richard Morrock (''The Psychology of Genocide and Violent Oppression: A Study of Mass Cruelty'' )〕〔Philip J.
