Edi Rama: Today we are the Taliban of the West, but once we were the North Korea

From the "Peace Forum" in Paris, Prime Minister Edi Rama expressed confidence that 2027 is expected to be the year when Albania will begin work on drafting the EU accession treaty.

"You know better than anyone that I cannot promise anything for Europe. I never promise things that do not depend on me. What is clear, based on the progress report, is that the European Commission has stated that 2027 is the year when we should work on the Accession Treaty and if everything goes well, we will conclude the negotiations at the end of next year," the prime minister declared.

Despite internal conflicts or protests, Rama stressed that membership in the European Union remains the country's common objective. During the conversation, he further stated that Albanians' attitude towards Europe is closely linked to Albania's unique history and its experience under the communist regime.

"We were not part of the former Yugoslavia. We were not part of the former Eastern Bloc like others. We broke away from the Eastern Bloc in the '60s. Then we jumped into a very special and unique relationship with Mao's China and we have been the North Korea of ​​Europe all along."

And then when we emerged from this hell, we emerged completely transformed into Western Taliban in a sense, that is, into fanatics of the West for good reasons because we have the highest rate of Euro-optimism in Europe and we remain so because for Albanians and for us in Albania, the European Union is for us what it was for the founding fathers.

Not an ATM, but an area of ​​freedom, security, peace and cooperation. So there is no doubt that despite internal conflicts or polarization or political views or protests, everyone, absolutely everyone agrees that Europe is our common objective and destination.

"There is no doubt about it. We have no other alternative and we do not seek one. We are not influenced by anyone other than the European project. So we are literally the best Europeans you can find in Europe today," he continued.
