“Open Balkan” in Tirana, Rama convinced: They will come to the Open Balkans, but they will lose a lot of time

“I want to say in Albanian that it is very important for Albanians since I do not even know the language and I have never been to Yugoslavia. Before learning Serbian I will learn German for example. We have decided today to invite in the next six months because we will have to prepare well that in the next summit we will have to address the barriers. In the next summit we will have Italy, Greece, Hungary. We have realized that it is not enough for traders, importers, transporters to have completely free trade like those in the EU, but they need to have fewer barriers when they arrive in the EU. We can be at the level of EU ambition and behavior. The Open Balkans not only helps countries, but shows how we can get to the EU. Will they finally start this intergovernmental conference, the more I say I think it is ASI, the Netherlands has a problem if Vasco de Gama was Albanian or Portuguese. They will come to the Open Balkans and it will be too late, the call is not safe, come on, because if you do not come we will leave this job, because we have started this for Albania “, said Rama.

This Tuesday, the “Open Balkans” Summit was held in Tirana, a meeting between Prime Minister Edi Rama and Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and the Prime Minister of Northern Macedonia, Zoran Zaev, where he signed five agreements.

1-A common and free labor market between Albania, Serbia and Northern Macedonia.

The Regional Cooperation Initiative is supported by the United States and the EU. However, Kosovo, Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina are not joining this initiative. The Government of Kosovo, under the leadership of Albin Kurti, thinks that the initiative of this initiative, according to him “mini-Schengen” is a visionless initiative for the region.
