TIRANA, Nov 13 /ATA/ – The Agency for Media and Information (MIA) said on Friday that the decision to host the next NATO summit in Tirana remained unchanged, clarifying that only the timing of the event was yet to be determined.
In a statement posted on social media, MIA said Prime Minister Edi Rama’s remarks a day earlier had referred solely to the timing of the summit and did not signal any cancellation or change to the decision for Albania to host the event.
The agency said the year and date of the summit would be determined through a joint decision by NATO member states in the North Atlantic Council.
“Prime Minister Edi Rama has stated that the next NATO summit will be held in Tirana. This decision remains unchanged. As for the year and date of the summit, these will be determined through a joint decision by allied countries in the North Atlantic Council,” MIA said.
“The Prime Minister’s statement yesterday was intended to clarify the timing of the summit, not to retract the decision to hold it in Albania. Tirana’s role as host city has been confirmed. The timing of the summit will be determined by the Alliance itself,” the agency added.
