Mustafa Nano, the ambassador of Albania in Switzerland, on the occasion of the November holiday, he is dressed in a folk costume.

Nano wore this traditional costume in an activity held the day before in Bern, on the occasion of the 111th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence of Albania.

This event brought together ambassadors and representatives of embassies in Switzerland, representatives from Swiss institutions, associations and the Albanian community in Switzerland, as well as various personalities.

Mustafa Nano appeared in a traditional Albanian dress.

"I want to tell you a few words about the Albanian national dress, convinced that this is a good way to honor the day we are celebrating, the Independence Day of Albania. What I'm wearing tonight is from the south, where I come from, but it could have been from any other Albanian tribe. Believe me, when I decided to dress up in a national costume, I didn't know which one to choose first. Albanian costumes are of different types, and one is more beautiful than the other", said Nano about his outfit in front of the guests.

He told the guests that it is not the first time that a diplomat wears the traditional costume, as Faik Konica did this earlier.

"A great Albanian named Faik Konica must have remembered the action of Alexandre Dumas. In 1913, in the USA, he went to a ball organized by the Austro-Hungarian embassy dressed in the ethnic costume of southern Albania. But for Konica, things did not go the way they did for Dumas. No woman was attracted to him that evening (Please, I don't want any misunderstanding to arise; I myself am not dressed in Albanian to win over any woman; my plan is different; I am constantly trying to win their hearts countrymen, who recognize all kinds of credentials in me, but not patriotic ones; with this show, I might make them change their minds about me). So no woman visited Konica that evening. It "was" a man, however. A scruffy looking man. It was the Greek ambassador, who stood out in the Konica show as a cultural appropriation. "The clothes you are wearing, sir, are not Albanian; they are Greek", he said. But Konica returned to him, as he knew. And they were consumed with words. They sharpened the axes well. As the Balkans have done and as they do today all day. You know, we fight for no reason at all, and not over the authorship of a suit like the one you're seeing." , Nano showed among others./ CNA
