Napoleon Zervas   Zervas was forced to resign in  when details of his contacts with the German occupation authorities surfaced This quote came from Wikepedias biography of Napoleon Zervas Other sites are more explicit and call him a Nazi collaborateur Nowadays there are still a lot of greek people that believe that the Cham people were expelled because they collaborated with the Nazis However it was Zervas thet collaborated with the Nazis that expelled them Shouldnt this be more explicit in this article There is a UN resolution which asks the Greek government to repatriate the cham and to give back there propertiesThe rest of this article is lame I miss the following   Copyright   Illyriansorg During the Conference of Ambassadors in London in  the southern part of the region was cut off from the motherland and annexed to the Greek state despite the fact that people of the southern Epirus were Albanians of Orthodox and the Muslim faith While the orthodox Albanians were targets of hellenization the muslim Albanians were either exterminated or expelled from their ancestral lands by the Greek government  Chams who lived in Southern Epirus Chameria or Thesprotia as it is called by the Greeks were the victims of the first ethnic cleansing in Europe at the end of the Second World War The Cham tragedy is one of the most painful tragedies of the European continent Statistical yearbook of the Greek government in  showed that  Chams lived in Chameria region in Greece at that time  As a result of the  ethnic cleansing and genocide  Albanian Muslims were violently expelled from the Chameria region and sought refuge in the Republic of Albania where they still live Today there are  members of this population in Albania a figure that has grown because of the high birth rate of the population On the other hand current number of Cham Albanians living in Greece is estimated at around  Yet these people are deprived of every sort of minority rights like other minorities living in Greece To cite but one example they can speak Albanian only in their homes  The population of Chameria has always been ethnically Albanian  A lot of voyagers and foreign historians wrote that Chameria had been populated by Albanians Even the Greek historian Herodotus underscored this fact in his book Historias and called Albanians of the Chameria barbarians a term used by the ancient Greeks to distinguish nongreek people  The census held by the Turkish Administration in  established that there were  orthodox and muslim Albanians in the region The demographic map of the British military mission sent to the British government in London indicates that on the eve of the second World War  of Chamerias population was Albanian  The proGreek historian Spiro Muselimi in his book Historical Sight Through Thesprotia edited in Joannina on  wrote that The bishop of Thesprotia in the year  translated some parts of Bible into Albanian as the people of orthodox faith of the region did not understand any word in Greek   The Greek authorities sticking to the concept of absolute denial of the existence of ethnic groups on Greek territory have followed a wellestablished chauvinistic policy and as history recorded they committed genocide against the Albanians of muslim faith The racial assault on Chamerias muslim Albanians began to be first applied at the end of the Second World War in  when criminal bands of the notorious General Napoleon Zervas perpetrated ethnic cleansing against them  On June   Greek criminal bands resorted to the worst atrocities witnessed in this region The terror committed against this population was beyond description It included killings rapes inhuman treatment massacre of women babies and pregnant women More than  men women and children were killed within  hours in the town of Paramithy on Tuesday June   which happened to be the date of StBartholomeus day for the whole Chameria  During the June March  period  persons were killed in Filat  people were killed in Gumenica  persons were killed in Margellic and Parga There were hundreds of other missing persons In the same period as a result of Greek massacres acts of robbery and rapes against the Albanian population of Chameria  young and old men  women  children were massacred  women were raped  women abducted  children younger than  years were massacred  villages were razed to the ground  houses and places of worship were burned down or destroyed Furthermore  Albanian Muslims were violently expelled from the Chameria region who took refuge in the Republic of Albania  The Albanian government after the war took the Cham issue to the Peace Conference in Paris The conference of Foreign Ministers of the Allied Powers not only recognized the very difficult circumstances the Chams were subjected to but also demanded repatriation and recovery of their property The International Investigation Commission of the United Nations appointed for the verification of the tragedy on both sides of the border concluded its report in  replete with facts and evidence about the massacre and painful tragedy of the Cham people  Realities of the recent history of Chameria require the attention of the international community Greece cannot avoid but recognize the genocide of the Cham Albanians The civil and legal rights of those currently living in Greece estimated around  today must be respected by Greece According to the official Greek stand the muslim population of Chameria which numbers around  and still refugees in Albania will never be allowed to return to Greece because they allegedly collaborated with the German occupiers during the Second World War They are considered as war criminals according to the Greek laws KMitsotakis Tirana May   This hypothesis is untrue and fabricated To consider a whole community as criminals many members of which died in Greeces liberation struggle in the Second World War is a political and historical crime against Cham Albanians In  the Parliament of the Albanian Republic proclaimed  June  as the commemoration day for the massacred Albanians of Chameria and a monument was built up in Konispol in memory of the victims of Chameria  After  with a view to changing the demographic structure of Chameria its colonization with Greeks Aromens and Gypsies was begun Greece wanted the demographic structure of the province changed because it did not trust the rest of the Albanian population who remained there even though they were of the Orthodox confession Greece violently put an end to every attempt to preserve the identity of the Albanian population of the Orthodox belief and Albanian was prohibited to be spoken in public Thereby the assimilation of orthodox Albanians gained momentum The fate of the orthodox Albanians was not much different than that of their Muslim brothers when it came to maintaining their ethnic identity  Copyright   Illyriansorg  Helladios and
