“You and I have built a friendship over the days, but it is better not to debate but to work together. I am glad that we have taken the first step towards the EU to start the conference. I will also visit Macedonia, we must be rigorous and fair and you have made so much progress.
We need to formally start these negotiations to be fair. To have something along the way that we will move forward, I am happy for the fact that both countries are developing a deep connection.
The Netherlands is the largest investor in Albania. These companies are working to do more business in these countries. We work not only economically, but also in relation to architects. You yourself being an artist are very well known.
Let us continue to work hard, meet… hope to succeed after Sunday’s elections in Bulgaria so that at least both intergovernmental conferences start. You are artists and feel very good not only as prime minister but also as an artist. Let us continue to work like this to meet to build this friendship, to make it very practical, to be practical. “I am happy to be here and a lot of time has passed, but after 4 elections here I am,” he said.
