Scene from the ceremony

Prime Minister Edi Rama has shared on social media footage from the opening of the Albanian Mission to the European Union building.

"GOOD MORNING, and with the ceremonial evening of the opening of the doors of the Albanian Mission to the European Union building, on the eve of the opening of the last group chapter of the membership negotiations this morning, I wish you all a good week," Rama wrote in his post.

Also present at the ceremonial opening dinner were the EU Commissioner for Enlargement, Marta Kos, and the Albanian Ambassador to the European Union, Ferit Hoxha.   

The latter, during his speech at the dinner, stated that Albania is a country that has never lost faith in Europe.

"It is very comfortable for me to defend the cause of Albania today, because I represent a country and society that has never lost faith in Europe, a government with an unwavering political commitment to the EU and ready to seize every second ," said Hoxha.

European Commissioner Marta Kos also delivered a speech at the dinner, where she said that she feels like Albania's fourth ambassador to the EU. She emphasized that Albania has made enormous progress on the path towards integration.

“I feel myself... sorry, like the fourth ambassador of Albania here in Brussels. Yes, you are delivering results. The second reason is that you are not just talking, you are doing. We see the deeds. I cannot express to you how happy I am when I have the opportunity to explain with facts that you have made a truly gigantic progress and it is all thanks to your work. I always like to emphasize, there is no membership process without a committed leadership, that does not go back to the past seeking to find justifications for why something is impossible, but you have a leadership or you have a leader, who looks to the future to discern or seek the reasons and answers why something is possible. This is - and I would say do not quote me - this is one of the biggest differences between Albania and some other countries from the Western Balkans. Of course, dear Prime Minister, dear Edi, I am talking about you and I will close by saying: “This is your new home”. My task is to bring you, Albania, home, to "Europe ," Kos said.

Prime Minister Edi Rama also delivered a speech, thanking Commissioner Kos for her support for Albania's integration.

"In the past, when we came, it would rain and be cold outside and it would rain and be cold inside. Now it's different. Whatever's outside, it's warm inside and full of positive energy, positive faces and nice smiles. We're not used to this, Marta, so it's extraordinary to finally experience this, which is continuous throughout the year and is becoming permanent. I want to thank you all sincerely for being here and I thank you sincerely and with all my heart for the work of each and every one of you," said Rama.  /CNA
