  • PRESS RELEASE De Brouwer: Timing of Commission Proposal On
    EUROPEAN UNION - BASHKIMI EVROPIAN DELEGATION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION TO ALBANIA DELEGACIONI I KOMISIONIT EVROPIAN NE SHQIPERI Tirana, 9 November 2009 PRESS RELEASE Deputy Director General of the Directorate General Justice, Freedom and Security of the European Commission visits Albania De Brouwer: Timing of Commission proposal on visa liberalisation depends on Albania's speed of meeting benchmarks Deputy Director General of the Directorate General Justice, Freedom and Security of the European Commission, Mr Jean Louis De Brouwer, met today with Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Mr Ilir Meta, Secretary General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mr Gazmend Turdiu, Minister of Interior Mr Lulzim Basha and Minister of Justice of Albania Mr Bujar Nishani. Deputy Director General De Brouwer provided preliminary reactions to the progress made by Albania since the last assessment of the European Commission in June 2009. He welcomed the continued efforts made by Albania to meet the remaining requirements of the visa roadmap, including the adoption of action plans required by the visa roadmap. Determined implementation needs to follow and efforts need to be intensified to make progress on outstanding issues. The continued issuance of biometric passports since May 2009 was also noted as a very positive step. Other important outstanding requirements, to be tackled as soon as possible, are the adoption and implementation of the strategy and action plan on fighting financial crime, the new draft law reviewing the 2004 law on the confiscation of criminal assets and the new draft law on international mutual legal assistance. Strengthening capacities in the area of border and migration management is also crucial.

Media vizive dhe ajo e shkruar na ka “bombarduar” me kronikat e krimeve dhe me ato rozë. Dhe të vënë në rolin e një edukatori të brezave, të paktën në familje, pa folur në mjedisin social, e kemi të vështirë që t’u themi më të rinjve se ka edhe vlera të mira ky vend, kjo krahinë, që duhen njohur, që duhen ndjekur, pa folur dhe për Panteonin e vlerave që ka dhe duhet të ketë një komb, pavarësisht se sa popull ka ai në sipërfaqen që mbulon flamuri i tij.
