Comrade Enver Hoxha has written his book "The Khrushchevites" on the Albanian experience with the Khrushchevites, but as memoirs, they certainly are not complete from the point of view of explaining Khrushchev's revisionism. In this new collection, "Congress of Betrayal", partially of previous untranslated materials from Comrade Enver's Diary, the day-to-day experience of the Party of Labour of Albania Khrushchevites and, specific, the 20th Congress of the CPSU, is borne out in full. It proves that from day one of the waverings of the Soviets, in 1955 on their annulment of the Cominform decision of 1949 against the Titoites, to the removal of Khrushchev and the 23rd Brezhnev Congress in 1964-66, Comrade Enver Hoxha and the PLA were the only forces to assess every deviationist move of the USSR correctly from the very beginning, and the only ones to have their correct Marxist-Leninist stance remain as such. It also details such events as the 20th Congress and the denunciation of Stalin, including his epochal 1960 Moscow Meeting speech, the Hungarian counter-revolution and its source, the "anti-party" plot of Molotov et al., to the break of diplomatic relations by the Soviets in 1961, and much more.

Many revisionists dogmatically believe Albania was only a pawn in the Sino-Soviet split, but life (and this book) proves that Albania was a force of its own, capable of holding its weight and having deeper, more through-going contradictions with the Khrushchevites than the Chinese. In reality, the struggle of Comrade Enver Hoxha and the PLA opened up the gates for the formation of the new Marxist-Leninist parties and the end of the old Communist parties, which fossilized and demobilized themselves with Khrushchev's anti-scientific dogmas. Herein lies decisive proof that it is not the size of parties or countries that dictate their success, but their dedication to the emancipation of the proletariat, the lengths to which they seek truth to serve the people and never turn towards bureaucratism and self-conceit.
