We have cooperation and understanding with the Albanian side in all areas. In the context of mutual visits, he said that regarding the official visit of the President of the Republic of Albania, HE Ilir Meta, we will inform you about the dates in the following days. Meanwhile, he underlined that, hoping for the understanding of the Albanian side, it has been a while since we have had high-level visits from our side to Albania, which happened due to the busy agenda as a result of the latest situations in the region. Even within the framework of the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations, we are seeing the possibility of a high-level visit. Such a thing will also serve the preparation for holding the first Session of the Joint Intergovernmental Economic Commission between the two countries. In the end, he said that there are already all the possibilities to raise the bilateral cooperation to an even higher level, especially in the economic field.
