Albania has been given today, at the proposal of German Chancellor Scholz, the presidency of the Berlin Process, the organization of the next summit in Tirana.
In this regard, through a post on Facebook, Prime Minister Rama has said that this major international event, which has never happened in Albania, is significant for the degree of respect that Albania has gained in the international arena.
Prime Minister Rama adds that even though we are a small country, "today we have gained respect by giving respect to everyone, but also by demanding respect from everyone".
"Today, at the proposal of Chancellor Scholz, Albania was given the presidency of the Berlin Process and the organization of the next Summit in Tirana. On December 6, Albania will host the first Summit of the European Union with the Western Balkans in our region. These major international events that have never happened before in Albania, unimaginable until some time ago to be entrusted to an Albanian government, are significant for the degree of respect that Albania has gained internationally. We remain a small country, with our troubles and problems that need our time, patience and work to be solved, but today we have gained respect by giving everyone respect, but also by demanding respect from everyone. I pray every day that all of us, Albanians, primarily those who communicate with the world, politicians, journalists, artists, sportsmen and others, let us learn from other peoples without wasting infinite time, that Albania is our home, which is never insulted in foreign languages, but only defended and promoted for its thousand and one advantages. As for the defects and deficiencies, damages and repairs that are needed, it is more than enough for us to do it in our beautiful and rich Albanian".
