NATO launches investment at the Kuchova air base.

For this, NATO Air Command Commander General Todd Walters is making an official visit to Albania today.

At a joint conference with Defence Minister Olta Xhacka, Wolters said it is difficult to imagine what it was like almost 10 years ago when in the spring of 2009, we celebrate Albania's entry into NATO, and today we celebrate the launch of investments at the air base in Kuchova.

He said that in the coming months and years, investment will continue at Kucova's base.

“At Kucova air base is done so far a very good job, the investment will continue, there will be an air team to be added. Our goal is just to move forward”.

Walters also stressed Albania's commitment to NATO missions.

Albania's “Armed Forces cover an area extending from Tirana to the south in Afghanistan and Mali to Northeast in Latvia and then returning to Kosovo and then back to the capital in Tirana. The peace you distribute on this vast territorial surface is absolutely wonderful for the Alliance and contributes to peace and prosperity in the region”, said Walters.

Speaking to Kucova's base, he stressed that it represents great opportunities of innovation, great opportunities to improve control of a greater space.

It's a base that's going to have the opportunity to expect fighter planes that control space”.

Asked why Kucova was chosen for this base, he said “Kucova has a unique characteristic. It is a field positioned in a strategic geographic location as far as your country and the Western Balkans are concerned. It's also a place with incredibly good weather conditions. So the possibility of setting up fighter aircraft through Kucova is quite good”.
