Dear Hillary,
A serious situation has arisen in Albania which needs urgent attention at senior levels of the US government. You may
know that an opposition demonstration in Tirana on Friday resulted in the deaths of three people and the destruction of
property. There are serious concerns about further unrest connected to a counter-demonstration to be organized by the
governing party on Wednesday and a follow-up event by the opposition two days later to memorialize the victims. The
prospect of tens of thousands of people entering the streets in an already inflamed political environment bodes ill for
the return of public order and the country's fragile democratic process.
I believe two things need to be done urgently:
1. Bring the full weight of the international community to bear on Prime Minister Berisha and opposition leader Edi
Rama to forestall further public demonstrations and to tone down public pronouncements.
2. Appoint a senior European official as a mediator.
While I am concerned about the rhetoric being used by both sides, I am particularly worried about the actions of the
Prime Minister. There is videotape of National Guard members firing on demonstrators from the roof of the Prime
Ministry. The Prosecutor (appointed by the Democratic Party) has issued arrest warrants for the individuals in question.
The Prime Minister had previously accused the opposition of intentionally murdering these activists as a provocation.
After the tape came out deputies from his party accused the Prosecutor of planning a coup d'etat in collaboration with
the opposition, a charge Mr. Berisha repeated today. No arrests have been made as of this writing.
The demonstration resulted from opposition protests over the conduct of parliamentary elections in 2009. The political
environment has deteriorated ever since and is now approaching levels of 1997, when similar issues caused the country
to slide into anarchy and violence. There are signs that Edi Rama's control of his own people is slipping, which may lead
to further violence.
The US and the EU must work in complete harmony over this, but given Albania's European aspirations the EU must take
the lead. That is why I suggest appointing a mediator such as Carl Bildt. Martti Ahtisaari or Miroslav Lajcak, all of whom
have strong connections to the Balkans.
My foundation in Tirana is monitoring the situation closely and can provide independent analysis of the crisis.
Thank you,
George Soros

George Soros Tells Progressive Donors Obama Might Not Be The Best Investment
<http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2 010/11/17/george-so ros-obama n 785022.html>

WASHINGTON -- At a private meeting on Tuesday afternoon, George Soros, a longtime supporter of progressive causes, voiced
blunt criticism of the Obama administration, going so far as to suggest that Democratic donors direct their support somewhere
other than the president.
The Hungarian-American financier was speaking to a small side gathering of donors who had convened in Washington D.C. for
the annual gathering of the Democracy Alliance -- a formal community of well-funded, progressive-minded individuals and
activists.
According to multiple sources with knowledge of his remarks, Soros told those in attendance that he is "used to fighting losing
battles but doesn't like to lose without fighting."
"We have just lost this election, we need to draw a line," he said, according to several Democratic sources. "And if this
president can't do what we need, it is time to start looking somewhere else."
Michael Vachon, an adviser to Soros, did not dispute the comment, though he stressed that there was no transcript of a private
gathering to check. Vachon also clarified that the longtime progressive giver was not referring to a primary challenge to the
president.
"Mr. Soros fully supports the president as the leader of the Democratic Party," said Vachon. "He was not suggesting that we
seek another candidate for 2012. His comments were made in a private, informal conversation that was about the need for
UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2016-07895 Doc No. C06131634 Date: 11/03/2016
progressives to be more forceful in promoting their agenda. He was stressing the importance of being heard by elected
officials."
Dissatisfaction with the Obama administration was not limited to Soros's private gathering with donors. On Wednesday
morning, Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina received several tough questions during his address to the Democracy Alliance.
According to a source in the room, he was pressed multiple times as to why the administration has declined to be more
combative with Republicans, both in communication and legislative strategy. Another source in the room said the exchange was
not entirely contentious as people were simply expressing frustration about the fact that "we just came out of an election
where the right wing and the Republicans distorted what was going on."
Requests for comment from the White House were not returned, though a Democratic operative sympathetic to the
administration said that Soros's dissatisfaction with the White House was "hardly news." Sources who relayed that and other
exchanges insisted on anonymity, citing the strict rules against talking to the press that come with being part of the gathering.
The tone nevertheless was said to be notably different this year than in past years. In 2008, representatives for Obama were
received relatively warmly when they pitched the need to shepherd funds to the presidential campaign. Other progressive
institutions were left -- somewhat bitterly -- looking for scraps. But, by and large, the donor base felt their investment had
been wise, with Democrats regaining control of the White House and padding their majorities in Congress.
This year, following a drubbing in the 2010 elections and some stalling on major legislative items, the dynamics were notably
different. As one attendee put it: "It was a sober atmosphere... people are looking for answers but they are not unwilling to do
the work. I I
While Soros's comment gave some attendees the impression that he'd cheer a primary challenge to the president, the point,
sources say, was different. Rather, it is time to shuffle funds into a progressive infrastructure that will take on the tasks that
the president can't or won't take on.
"People are determined to help build a progressive infrastructure and make sure it is there not just in the months ahead but
one that will last in the long term," said Anna Burger, the retired treasury secretary of SEIU. "Instead of being pushed over by
this election it has empowered people to stand up in a bigger way."
"There was frustration," said one Democratic operative who attended the meetings. The main concern was about messaging. I
think they are frustrated that the president isn't being more direct. But I did not get the sense that anyone's commitment to
the progressive movement was wavering... The general consensus is that support has to move beyond being about one person
and more about a movement. I don't know if we've moved beyond there."
One of those "movement" ventures is an outside-government arm to match conservatives in the 2012 elections. For several
weeks, discussions have been led by Media Matters for America founder David Brock about the need to create a group that will
run advertisements, conduct opposition research and perform rapid response functions. Those talks continued this past week,
though disputes have begun to emerge about the most effective role for such a group. As one activist who is involved with the
Democracy Alliance noted:
"There are a handful of funders committed to the idea of taking on corporate interests in politics... I think the [Supreme
Court's] Citizens United decision [allowing unlimited corporate donations in campaigns] intellectually caused a shift to want to
deal with corporate money. The election results split the partners in the Democracy Alliance, not down the middle, between
those who say let's fight back and those who say we have to change the rules."
