After they were hosted with songs and dances in Lasith, a location near the location where the talks are held, the name of which Mr. Kotzias baptized with the emir “Europepa” two years ago, the two ministers have returned to the talks.

Perhaps to highlight this very aspect, Mr. Kotzias said that, “we are continuing discussions on Albania's European integration”.

Saturday afternoon's talks are focused on the problems of the Greek minority living in Albania, as well as discussed pending points in agreements the parties have agreement on or access to.

What is already completed, according to Top Channel sources, is the Sea Agreement. The Greek side has acknowledged that with the 2009 agreement, Albania loses sovereignty in territory so that it has agreed to have a new division.

That is why there will be new references on the ground, from which Albania will not lose a square metre of land.

It seems that the case of the cemetery of Greek soldiers' fallen in World War II will be attached to the list of closed cases between the two countries. The Greek side insisted it was a human issue, so it should be addressed as such.

The consular issues have also been agreed and remain to complete the formula for how this issue will be carried out in practice.

For the war law, the parties have also brought with them international expertise, while the Greek side has investigated with the presidency the legal way to abolish the law in question.

On this subject there is a review of the Greek presidency, which has estimated that lifting the law could join the new friendship treaty, which will be formulated in the coming months.
