Lulzim Basha’s full statement:
I had the pleasure of talking and wishing success to the new President of the European People’s Party, Donald Tusk, a tremendous supporter of Albania and Albanians on the path to EU integration.
I discussed with President Tusk my determination to fight hard to fulfill all the obligations that our country has for opening the negotiations and to persuade skeptical countries with the results of our work as we did for NATO membership and visa liberalization.
I found the full support of President Tusk to help us in this process of radical transformation of our country, setting in Albania the standards of the European Union , free and fair elections, the functioning of law, equality before the law, the fight against corruption, the separation of politics from crime and economic development.
President Tusk stressed out that in a political battle, truth and determination will triumph over fake news, manipulation and hatred, while expressing his commitment to help Albania telling its truths away from propaganda.
The President of EPP has welcomed my invitation to visit our country soon./abcnews.al
