The Ministerial Process of South East Europe Cooperation, which has been taking place since Friday morning in Thessaloniki, is focused as expected on regional cooperation, especially in the security and economic development sectors, to facilitate the European integration processes of the Western Balkan countries.
Regarding the opening of negotiations for Albania and Northern Macedonia, the Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, Olta Xhaçka, stressed that she is still optimistic, hoping to find a solution between Bulgaria and Northern Macedonia, but underlined the fact that a constant wait on the part of these two countries undermines the credibility of the enlargement process.
Expressing the importance of the ministry in question, Xhaçka also stressed that this interregional cooperation takes on a special meaning in the conditions of the war in Ukraine and the energy crisis.
While presenting the will of Albania to take over the presidency of the regional initiative SEECP for the period 2024-2025, the Albanian chief diplomat praised the role of Greece in its support to Tirana and Skopje on the path of integration, but also cooperation with Albania in various sectors.
The evening summit of the leaders of the countries of Southeast Europe, including Prime Minister Rama, headed by Prime Minister Mitsotakis, as well as the participation of Chancellor Scholz and the President of the European Council Carles Michel, is expected with great interest.
