And in the face of Russia's unjust and unprovoked war against Ukraine, we have worked together in the United Nations Security Council to support the Ukrainian people, holding Russia responsible for the aggression. Albania continues to be a humanitarian leader, providing temporary shelter for Afghans and other vulnerable groups".

As we begin the next century of our bilateral relationship, I look forward to deepening our partnership even further, including the fight against corruption and organized crime, strengthening energy security across Europe and strengthening cooperation on cyber security," said the President.
