"There is no extension to the agreement", the minister regrets: It was

Following the statement made to Euractiv about the Italy-Albania agreement, Foreign Minister Ferit Hoxha has made a reaction.

In Platform X, Hoxha writes that when he referred to the Rama-Meloni agreement and the possibility of not extending it beyond 2030, he did not imply a decision.

According to the minister, there is a momentary reflection for which Hoxha seems to have regretted.

Post:

A journalist in Brussels asked me whether the protocol between Albania and Italy would be renewed after the end of the initial five-year period.

I responded by saying: “I’m not sure, assuming that by then Albania will be a member state of the European Union and the situation will, therefore, be different.”

It was that simple. It wasn't a decision, but simply a momentary reflection, expressed with sincerity and spontaneity.

This statement should in no way be interpreted as a change in Albania's position regarding the protocol.

Unfortunately, in today's world, noise often spreads faster than argument, logic, and context.

Expressions taken out of context are too often transformed into narratives that reflect neither the essence of the discussion nor the real stance of governments.
