Dear friends,

Today the session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe began in Strasbourg.

First meeting we held at the Parliamentary Group of European People's Partys - EPP.

EPP President Joseph Daul also attended.

Many issues were discussed involving the work of Commissions, group work, future elections for EPP president, which will be held in October, about the need for the EPP to have its candidate for Secretary General of the Council of Europe, etc.

In the afternoon at the EPP meeting was European Commission President Mr. Jean Claude Juncker.

He spoke about many subjects for about two hours and answered many of the MPs' questions.

In my question of where we are with the visa liberalisation process for Kosovo, President Juncker said that we as the European Commission have done our job, we are now trying to persuade some governments of some states to give the green signal both for Kosovo, but also for opening negotiations with Albania.

He mentioned fighting corruption and rule of law.

Even so, how important it is to be where we are spoken of, as in this case, at the largest group of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, the EPP, where we as LDK are members.

The Assembly's summer session and Parliamentary Commissions, as well as EPP, continue operations until Friday 29 June.

I. Bekiri
