Prime Minister Edi Rama, in an interview given to the Greek television "Mega", stated that he has changed his opinion towards US President Donald Trump, referring to his statement in 2016 when he stated that a possible Trump victory would be detrimental to the democratic vote.
"In 2016, I didn't have all my hair white. I was younger and he wasn't president, he was a candidate. Then he became president. I was able to see him in action up close, and of course I changed my mind."
"Moreover, I think that if Europe were to blame Trump for its situation, it would be a terrible mistake ," Rama declared during an interview given on Greek television "Mega".
Asked if he thinks there is a lack of governance in the EU, Prime Minister Rama said that as it is, Europe is like a patient with 27 doctors.
"Europe is the most wonderful project of humanity, but as it is, Europe resembles a patient with 27 doctors. It is not a panorama that gives you strength and security. Not only are there 27 doctors but also pathologists. It is not a panorama that gives you strength and security. Not only are there 27 doctors but also pathologists," Rama said.
In the interview given to the Greek media, Rama calls the greatest threat that could come to Europe its transformation into irrelevance.
Regarding the progress of the EU integration process, Rama said that despite the steps taken, much more needs to be done.
"We needed Vladimir Putin to wake up Europe to push this process forward, and we plan to close the technical part by 2027. My objective is to be together in the same big family by 2030 ," Rama declared.
