Albania Break With Soviet Union Signals Shifting Communist Ties
The break between Albania and the Soviet Union raises Western hopes of further fractures in the Communist world. U S experts foresee possible Albania’s expulsion from the Warsaw Pact and Albania's continued ties with China ahead of reactions from Moscow's satellites.
