“They all deserve all our effort to bring Albania closer to the EU”.

This is what the Rapporteur for Albania in the European Parliament, Knut Fleckenstein, said in a post on the Facebook social network. After his visit to Tirana, Knut Fleckenstein wrote that progress was made and negotiations on Albania’s membership in the European Union should kick off.  

“Last week I visited again Albania. My conclusion is clear:

We have to start now negotiations with this country. Progress has been made, though a lot of work is left. No doubt!

Was really encouraged by the young people I met in Tirana, in the school and social center in Bregu Lumit, or in the University of Durres. They all deserve all our effort to bring Albania closer to the EU. We might have different opinions about a lot of political decisions, but for these youngsters in Tirana it is worthwhile to work.

And I am sure; the students of Durres will help us”
