The greeting of Prime Minister Edi Rama upon his arrival at the Regional Summit of Leaders - the Western Balkans and the EU

Good morning,

Thank you! First of all, I wanted to tell you that I am quite disappointed that Montenegro did not manage to welcome us with the sun, but welcomed us with the German rain. However, for the rest, everything is fine and we will hold another session of this very inspiring and encouraging process that will open new paths for all the Balkan countries to enable integration into the European Union's common market and to boost trade, while creating new opportunities for our citizens.

We hope that within this year we will make sure that the financial transfers of our citizens from the EU to our countries will be much cheaper, because we will not have the burden of the expenses they have, and if it is done, it will be a very good thing. We have to work on the rest.
