Rama receives Progress Report: EC confirms conviction, Albania has met all conditions

Rama stressed that the commission confirms its conviction that Albania has met all conditions. He said the report objectively sealed that Albania comes from an undisputed election process in view of compliance with O standards The SEU and Albania have continued to progress in key reforms.

“It's very important that we understand that beyond membership itself, this is an internal, necessary process, to have a state here that functions with all normal, with all of its” standards.

The report we receive today is another in a succession of others now, where the Commission confirms its conviction that Albania has met all the conditions to also formally start what was previously established in the European Council and to undertake a discussion of membership with the EU. I also want to highlight something that I've consistently highlighted in this all instances, we find in the European Commission a fair, rigorous partner, which values progress based on the research of facts on the ground. For this reason, there is, there is, in no capital of member states, a similar structure or one that can compete for the quality of research the European Commission delegation in our country. While listening to EU deadlines and decision-making days that in one country or another, claims are raised that, you expect, it should, too, be needed, these are political. Therefore, the progress report is a guide document. All the others are the ongoing interference of the political nature”.

“Raport objectively stamps that Albania stems from an undisputed election process in view of compliance with O standards The SEB, that Albania has continued to progress on key reforms”, Rama said. /A2 CNN
