Prime Minister Edi Rama took to Facebook after a meeting of the Socialist Party’s National Assembly, saying the meeting focused on preparations for Albania’s accession to the European Union, which are set to begin in 2027.
Citing the recommendation in the EU Enlargement Report, Rama said no “barrage of stones, Molotov cocktails, mud or bird droppings” should distract the Socialist Party from its historic mission of bringing Albania into the European Union in 2030.
“‘We recommend starting preparations in 2027 for ALBANIA’S ACCESSION TREATY with the European Union.’ This is the historic sentence in the EU Enlargement Report. The words ‘Albania’s Accession Treaty’ capture the essence of what we have achieved and the responsibility we bear to ensure that nothing and no one, no barrage of stones, Molotov cocktails, mud or bird droppings, distracts us from our historic mission of bringing Albania into the European Union in 2030.
“That was also the focus of today’s National Assembly meeting, where I saw that spark in the eyes of Socialists as they geared up for a new battle and a new victory for Albania and its history.
“MAY 9, 2027 WILL BE EUROPE DAY AND THE SOCIALIST PARTY’S DAY. We don’t have to go all the way to Kuç for that,” Rama wrote.
