The German Embassy welcomes the new President and expresses regret for the opposition boycott.
"We heartily congratulate Mr Bajram Begaj for the election as the new President of the Republic of Albania today. The President's election stands on the politics of the day. It creates the unique opportunity to engage in the sign of union as well as – started by the challenges before which Albania is located - to work in overcoming political trenches and to support the culture of union beyond parties. In this context I wish Mr Bajram Begaj much strength and every good," the German Embassy writes.
