Albania’s 2027 budget supports armed forces modernisation

Prime Minister Edi Rama said the 2027 defence budget will continue to modernise the Armed Forces, strengthen national security and meet commitments to NATO and strategic allies.

Rama also shared footage of first-year bachelor’s students and Officer Preparation Course trainees at the Military Professional Education Centre in Bunavi, Vlora. He described their daily routine as one of discipline, training, dedication and responsibility, preparing them for future military service.

One trainee said the transition from civilian to military life had taken her out of her comfort zone. She said it had made her more responsible, disciplined and resilient. Another described the transition as both a professional and personal process. He said his decision had strengthened his resolve to put his integrity, skills and knowledge at the service of the Armed Forces, national security and national integrity.

A further trainee said the course had introduced her to rules, discipline and teamwork. She welcomed the opportunity to serve her country.
