In #Thessaloniki 23 years ago, the EU declared: the future of the Western Balkans is in the EU. Today, in Tivat, that message was renewed and made even clearer: that future is now. #Enlargement #Horizon2030

Finally, great news! The successful conclusion of negotiations on the gradual elimination of #roaming charges between the European Union and the #WesternBalkans is set to deliver one of the most tangible and meaningful benefits of European integration for citizens and businesses alike. This achievement will enhance connectivity, facilitate travel and communication, strengthen people-to-people contacts, and create new opportunities for trade, investment, and economic cooperation across Europe. It is also expected to provide a significant boost to mobility and #tourism, particularly in #Albania, by making travel more convenient, affordable, and accessible for millions of European visitors. More than a technical accomplishment, it represents a concrete step towards the gradual integration of the Western Balkans into the EU Single Market and a more connected #European space. It demonstrates how the enlargement process can generate real and immediate benefits for citizens, even before accession. Bringing the Western Balkans closer to the European Union must be reflected not only through policies and institutions, but also through practical improvements that people can experience in their everyday lives. Lower communication costs, greater mobility, and stronger regional and European links are clear examples of how integration delivers tangible results. These commitments were at the heart of today’s discussions at the EU–Western Balkans Summit in Tivat, where leaders reaffirmed their shared determination to accelerate the region’s gradual integration into the European Union through concrete measures that bring citizens and businesses closer together. A stronger partnership between the European Union and the Western Balkans is an investment not only in the region’s future, but also in Europe’s security, competitiveness, resilience, and cohesion. This is European integration at its best: delivering concrete benefits where they matter most—in the daily lives of our citizens. #Horizon2030 #Enlargement #RoamLikeAtHome
The work towards ending roaming charges for our candidate countries in the Western Balkans is clear evidence of how we are integrating them while they negotiate their full EU membership. Citizens will see the difference this makes immediately when it comes into effect. And at the end of the day, all our work in the accession process is focused on making people’s lives better. I’m delighted to see EU member states adopt our proposal to give the European Commission a mandate to discuss the practical steps for removing roaming charges with the telecommunications operators.

Albania strongly condemns yet another brutal and indiscriminate large-scale ballistic missile and drone #attack launched last night by Russia against civilian targets in Ukraine, in total disregard for human life and basic human decency. This time, the residential complex where the #Ambassador of Albania to #Ukraine resides was struck, putting his life at serious risk. This is unacceptable! Targeting or endangering civilian areas and #diplomatic personnel represents a grave escalation and another stark reminder of the human cost of Russia’s continued aggression. This war of choice has lasted for far too long. For more than four years since its illegal full-scale invasion, Russia has relentlessly targeted energy infrastructure, schools, hospitals, and homes across Ukraine. Yet it has failed to break the #courage, determination, resilience, and strength of the Ukrainian people. Russia is not winning; it is only killing, destroying, and inflicting widespread devastation and suffering. We reiterate our call on #Russia to immediately cease these attacks, put an end to the war against Ukraine, fully abide by international law, and return to negotiations. #Albania will continue to stand firmly with #Ukraine and reiterates its unwavering support for Ukraine’s #sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity. Those responsible for these attacks must be held accountable. The Ambassador of the Russian #Federation to Albania has been summoned for explanations.

Shtetasi shqiptar, z. Baki Goxhaj, pjesëmarrës në flotiljen “Global Sumud”, është tashmë rrugës për në atdhe. Që në momentin e parë të sinjalizimit, strukturat e #Shërbimit të Jashtëm, në bashkërendim me institucionet e tjera shqiptare kanë ndjekur pa ndërprerje çështjen, në komunikim të vazhdueshëm me autoritetet izraelite. #Shqipëria ka qenë e qartë dhe konsistente në kërkesën e saj për respektimin e plotë të të drejtave të shtetasit shqiptar, në përputhje me të drejtën ndërkombëtare dhe normat humanitare, duke reaguar kundër çdo forme trajtimi të papranueshëm. Ky rast është një tjetër dëshmi e përkushtimit të përditshëm dhe e punës profesionale të Shërbimit të Jashtëm, përfshirë #përfaqësive tona #diplomatike dhe #konsullore, për t’u gjendur pranë qytetarëve shqiptarë në çdo kohë dhe në çdo rrethanë, me përgjegjësi, profesionalizëm dhe përkushtim të plotë institucional. Ky është misioni ynë: të përfaqësojmë e mbrojmë interesat e Republikës së Shqipërisë dhe ato kombëtare, të jemi pranë #qytetarëve shqiptarë, veçanërisht në momentet kur ata kanë më shumë nevojë për mbështetjen, kujdesin dhe angazhimin e shtetit të tyre.

The images shared by Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir showing the humiliating treatment of detained #flotilla activists are shocking and unacceptable. All persons detained must be treated with dignity and in full respect of human rights, international law, and humanitarian law. I have instructed our #Embassy in Tel Aviv to remain in close contact and coordination with the Israeli authorities in order to ensure that appropriate consular assistance is provided to our citizen, as needed and in full compliance with international law.

At the panel “From Burden to Benefit: Making the Western Balkans' EU Accessions a European Geopolitical Win”, I conveyed a clear core message: among many strengths, #Albania brings to the European Union key, often undervalued, assets. First, predictability and credibility in its positions, consistently demonstrated through full alignment with the #CFSP, proven through actions, not just words. Second, an unwavering commitment across the entire country and society to its #European anchorage. Third, a sustained investment in bilateral and #regional cooperation, stability, and mutual understanding. Albania has been at the forefront of efforts to bring the #WesternBalkans closer together, helping shift the narrative, from a region once defined by division to one increasingly recognized as an integral part of South-East Europe. In this, Albania is proud to be leading from the front. At a time when the EU must reaffirm its role in an unpredictable world and act as a stronger geopolitical actor, consistency and reliability are not details or technicalities, they are strategic assets.

My dream is to get into a car and drive straight to Beirut, visit that beautiful city, and befriend the good people of Lebanon. I shared this message of hope and peace with ambassadors, diplomats, military attachés, and faith leaders as we celebrated Israel’s 78th Independence Day at the President’s Residence today.

At the #Delphi Economic Forum, speaking on the panel on EU enlargement in the #WesternBalkans, I underlined that for #Albania, European accession is not simply and only about alignment with the acquis, but also its effective implementation and the delivery of real results. We are advancing on key reforms and strengthening institutions in parallel: building a more professional and merit-based public administration, a more independent and professional justice system, and increasingly digitalised public services. Every step forward in the #negotiations is matched by concrete implementation capacity on the ground. Our objective remains the same: to close all negotiation chapters by 2027 and be ready for EU membership by 2030. This is and should remain a merit-based process, where progress must reflect tangible results and be met with timely decisions that preserve the credibility of #enlargement. Enlargement is a shared #European project and a strategic investment in the continent’s security, stability, and cohesion. We must maintain and sustain the momentum with all Member States, including in particular with partners like #Greece who understand the region and its importance, and translate commitments into concrete deliverables. #Shqipëria2030 #Horizon2030

On the margins of the #Delphi Economic Forum, I met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of #Greece, George Gerapetritis, to continue our constructive and forward-looking dialogue on Albanian–Greek relations. 🇦🇱🇬🇷 Building on the meeting held earlier today in #Athens between our Prime Ministers, we reaffirmed our shared commitment to advancing bilateral cooperation in a spirit of mutual trust, good neighbourliness, and strategic partnership, firmly anchored in our common #European future and #NATO Allied solidarity. To this end, we agreed to engage actively and concretely at all levels, with dedicated teams, to address outstanding issues and work towards balanced, durable solutions in the interest of both our countries and our citizens, opening a new chapter in our bilateral relations. Unlocking the full potential of our partnership is, in itself, a direct investment in the bilateral friendship and cooperation, but also in stability, prosperity, and a shared European future for our region. In parallel, we agreed to make full use of every opportunity to intensify political dialogue and expand economic cooperation, particularly in energy, infrastructure, and tourism, while promoting greater connectivity and people-to-people exchanges. I also expressed our appreciation for Greece’s consistent support for Albania’s EU accession and for its continued advocacy of enlargement in the #WesternBalkans, including by keeping it high on the agenda of this year’s Delphi Forum. We welcome Greece’s commitment to work closely with the upcoming EU Presidencies of #Ireland and #Lithuania to ensure that enlargement remains a key #European priority. We also welcome the Delphi Declaration adopted this morning, a renewed commitment to finally turn the #Thessaloniki promise into a concrete deliverable. The Oracle of Apollo must have been listening.

#Economic diplomacy is a priority of our foreign policy. A slogan? Certainly not. Very pleased to meet today with the CEO of @LuxairAirlines, Gilles Feith, and his team to explore ways to establish air connectivity between #Albania and #Luxembourg. With Albania’s rapidly growing #tourism sector and expanding aviation infrastructure, the potential for new routes and deeper commercial cooperation is clear. ✈️ Enhanced connectivity goes beyond flights; it supports trade, attracts investment, enhances mobility, and brings people closer together, fully aligned with and supportive of Albania’s development priorities, growth prospects, and #European accession path. We look forward to advancing this dialogue and to welcoming the presence of #Luxair in Albania. 🇦🇱🇱🇺

🇦🇱🇱🇺 Ravi d’avoir été accueilli pour un échange très chaleureux et constructif par le Vice-Premier ministre et ministre des Affaires étrangères du Luxembourg, Xavier Bettel @Xavier_Bettel. Nous avons réaffirmé l’excellent état des relations d’amitié et de coopération entre l’Albanie et le #Luxembourg, ainsi que notre engagement commun à approfondir davantage la coopération dans les domaines clés existants, tout en exprimant notre volonté d’explorer davantage des secteurs tels que l’innovation, la technologie et le tourisme. J’ai exprimé la profonde reconnaissance de l’Albanie pour le soutien constant et résolu du Luxembourg à notre processus d’adhésion à l’UE, ainsi que pour son engagement en faveur de la perspective européenne des Balkans occidentaux. Nous avons également discuté des prochaines étapes des négociations d’adhésion, en soulignant l’importance de maintenir la dynamique de l’élargissement à travers un processus crédible, fondé sur le mérite et orienté vers notre avenir européen commun. Je me réjouis de poursuivre et d’approfondir ce partenariat étroit, nourri par nos valeurs européennes communes, notamment à l’occasion d’une prochaine visite du Ministre Bettel en #Albanie. -- Shumë kënaqësi që u prita për një shkëmbim shumë të ngrohtë dhe konstruktiv nga Zëvendëskryeministri dhe Ministri i Punëve të Jashtme të Luksemburgut, Xavier Bettel (@Xavier_Bettel).
