Greek Defense Minister Nikos Dendias visited Tirana on Monday and met Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama.

The two officials discussed the wider geopolitical situation in the region. Dendias also spoke about Himarë, which he said is linked to his family origins. He said the Greek ethnic minority remains a bridge of friendship between Albania and Greece.

Rama welcomed Dendias at the prime minister’s residence in Tirana. The two also toured the residence garden and held a working lunch.
