"The EU accession process is based on merit and on the approval of all member states to meet the criteria. This is a signal to all EU candidate countries in the region."
This is what the German ambassador in Tirana, Karl Bergner, told BGNES special envoy in the Albanian capital, Dimitar Ruskov
"The decision to open the first cluster with Albania will allow us to discuss important issues with the Albanian government in much more depth. We will start with the rule of law and the fight against corruption, which is important for all spheres and for the development of Albania," the German diplomat stressed.
Asked by BGNES what Skopje needs to do to get the same result, Bergner said. The EU and its members are serious about the negotiation process. This is a very positive signal, even if not all candidates benefit from it at the same time." | BGNES
