Edi Rama met the Socialist Party Assembly in Vlora. He focused on Albania’s EU integration process. First, he said Albania stands at a historic turning point. He stressed that international conditions now favor the country.

Moreover, he said EU countries support Albania more than before. Therefore, he called this a rare political opportunity. In addition, he said Albania and the EU now share the same goal. Albania pushes for membership, and Europe opens the path.

Furthermore, he warned that this moment will not last. So, he urged fast and focused action. As a result, he pushed for continued reforms without delay.

He also highlighted fast progress in negotiations. For example, Albania opened all negotiation chapters in just 11 months. However, he explained that all EU member states must agree. If one country blocks, progress stops.

Finally, he said the EU now supports Albania’s steps. He emphasized that all 27 countries have backed recent progress decisions.
