Albania: US activates Europe Special Forces Staff

This headquarters will provide high expertise and provide interoperability with the Albanian Special Forces, but also with those in the region.

US Ambassador to Albania Yuri Kim said that the presence of this American base shows that ties between Albania and the US are stronger than ever.

Last year's “Defeder ♫21x2> testified that our security relationship was ready for the next level. And here we are. With Task Force for the first time in history in operation, Albania will probably be the basis for a permanent American military presence”.

Meanwhile, Albanian Defence Minister Niko Peleshi said this decision came at the right time, at the height of the uncertainty and the grim situation that our continent is going through, as well as testimony to the several times the strong link that stems from Albania's Strategic Partnership with the United States, writes A2 conveys Clankosova.tv.

Our country has made clear its position on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, according to its internationally recognised borders. Our support for Ukraine has been and will continue to be steadfast. This support consists of political, diplomatic attitudes, which culminate in our actions and positions on the UN Security Council but also support the practical military nature. Furthermore, who thought he would divide us into this difficult situation made the wrong account, as our Alliance, the EU, and the entire Western Community united and are more united than ever before, in support of Ukraine”.
