– Welcome. Very glad to see you again. Thank you, first of all, for the hospitality during my visit to Albania. As we agreed, we will continue our active dialogue. So your visit is kind of a follow up to see how it’s going. All the instructions have been given from both sides. So, our teams work actively. The results of my official visit are really very positive. We are strengthening our ties and creating new opportunities. As I already informed you, we are opening an Embassy in Tirana, and this is also an important sign of our cooperation. From a practical point of view, this will allow us to be more involved in the developments in your country and also to be more efficient in our bilateral agenda. Once again, welcome.
