Fiqri Dine

Colonel Fiqri Dine (5 May 1897[1] or 3 August 1897[2] – 26 November 1960) was Prime Minister of Albania under Nazi Germany's military occupation.

Despite being chosen as the Prime minister of Albania, Dine was mainly influenced by Mehdi Frashëri and Abaz Kupi.

Germans and Zogist forces, without directly cooperating, managed to drive the partisans from Mati at the end of July.

A series of ominous international events during the last days of August made it abundantly clear to even the most pro-German Albanians that the German occupation of Albania would soon end.

Martin Schliep and Josef Fitzthum where enraged after discovering Dine's contact with the Allies, replaced him with Ibrahim Biçakçiu on 29 August 1944.
