As part of the participation in the High Level Week of the 78th Session of the UN General Assembly, the President of the Republic Bajram Begaj, held a meeting with the High Representative & Vice President of the European Commission, Josep Borrell.
The President of the Republic thanked Mr. Borrell for the support and attention he has always shown for the region of the Western Balkans and its integration processes and especially, for the opening of negotiations with Albania. President Begaj expressed his appreciation for the commitment of the High Representative and the Commission, to keep the integration of the region in focus, despite the debates and discussions within the EU. In this context, he emphasized that a clear European perspective of the region is a guarantee for its security and future.
President Begaj expressed hope for tangible and concrete results as soon as possible in the integration processes in the opening of the basic group-chapters through the second intergovernmental conference and assured that Albania will resolutely continue the process of internal reforms.
In the meeting, the President of the Republic and the High Representative of the EU also discussed the situation in Kosovo, reiterating that the dialogue mediated by the EU and supported by the US is the only way to alleviate tensions in the north of Kosovo and normalize relations between Kosovo and Serbia. Dialogue is also the necessary path for the integration of Kosovo in the EU. The interlocutors valued the importance of the parties working together on other steps for the implementation of the Agreement reached between the two countries in February and March 2023, as well as engaging constructively in future dialogue meetings.
