Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama has apologized for insulting Greece.
Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama said in an interview with the news website hours before his meeting with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in Tirana today on the sidelines of the EU-Western Balkans summit. Uractive The process of joining the Western Balkans to the European Union is not a school exam you can “cheat” like Greece.
In his interview published on Tuesday, Mr Rama said, “We must not forget that the integration process is a personalized process based on merit. [της κάθε χώρας]. We have to meet certain criteria, and this is not an exam you can “steal” – even if the professors are willing to help you. It is in your best interest to clear these exams.”
There he further said, “It is important to have companies operating in our country so that we do not cheat as some neighboring countries have done in the past.” When asked to name which countries, he directly answered “Greece”.
However, in retrospect, the Albanian Prime Minister, who met his Greek counterpart in the Albanian capital later today, did reform.
During their meeting in Tirana today, E. Raman apologized to the Greek Prime Minister. “I saw how some of my statements were reasoned and did not represent the situation in Greece. I hope you are not disturbed,” the Albanian prime minister said.
