Justice Minister Toni Gogu began a two-day working visit to Rome today. He held talks with senior Italian officials to strengthen cooperation in justice and support Albania’s European integration.
During the first day, Gogu met Maurizio Gasparri, Chair of the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defence. He also met Stefano Mogini, President-designate of the Court of Cassation, and Ciro Maschio, Chair of the Justice Committee of the Chamber of Deputies.
The talks focused on Italy’s support for Albania’s EU membership process. They also covered Italy’s experience in returning assets confiscated from criminal groups to local communities.
Furthermore, the officials discussed cooperation between Albania’s Supreme Court and Italy’s Court of Cassation. They also examined how Italian judicial reforms have affected trial times and citizens’ access to justice.
“Albania has established new justice institutions. Now they must prove their ability to cooperate and deliver results in line with European standards. Italy is an important partner in this process,” Gogu said.
Tomorrow, the minister will meet his Italian counterpart, Carlo Nordio, and Mauro Paladini, President of the School of Magistrates.
