26/06/2026 | 10:19:45 Thank you, Madam President. I will speak about the protest in Albania. History teaches us that one of the first signs of authoritarianism is the attempt to suppress peaceful protest. Authoritarian leaders fear citizens gathering and respond by restricting freedom of assembly, intimidating activists, targeting journalists and using state power to silence critics. This is what's happening today in Albania. Many of you have seen images of massive protests in Tirana, Albanian communities across... 25/06/2026 | 16:07:27 Thank you.

According to Eurostat, in the last decade, over 3.1 million citizens from the Western Balkans have migrated to the European Union (EU) member countries. Around 2 million have received residence permits, confirming that migration is not... 23/04/2026 | 15:58:07 Thank you Madam President, Dear colleagues, Yes, I will support this additional protocol because these changes are more than necessary. When today only 1% to 2% of criminal assets are actually confiscated, while the methods to hide money have become more sophisticated, faster and more global. As I was reading the report, I could not help but see my own country in it. The state-crime nexus in Albania is most visible in the construction and real estate sector, where illicit funds, primarily...
