He was also a member of the Politburo of the Party of Labor of Albania, chairman of the Democratic Front of Albania, commander-in-chief of the armed forces from 1944 until his death. He served as the 22nd Prime Minister of Albania from 1944 to 1954 and at various times served as both foreign minister and defense minister of the People's Socialist Republic of Albania.
