TIRANA, Nov 12 /ATA/ – The next NATO summit, if held in 2028, would take place in Tirana, Prime Minister Edi Rama said on Thursday.
Speaking to reporters upon arriving at the 9th European Political Community (EPC) Summit in Dublin, Ireland, Rama was asked about recent discussions concerning the timing and organisation of the NATO summit.
“Albania is projected to be the next host of the NATO summit. No common position has yet been reached on when it will take place. For sure, not in 2027, but in 2028. If there is a summit, it will be held in Tirana, without any doubt. Everything being said about this is complete nonsense,” Rama said.
Following the NATO summit in The Hague, the Netherlands, the leaders of the Alliance’s 32 member states had unanimously agreed that Tirana would host the 2027 summit.
NATO summits do not follow a regular or set schedule. They are normally planned far in advance, but can be convened on a shorter notice if necessary.
