U.S. Secretary of State Warns of More Public Designations of Albanian Corrupt

Albanian newspapers published today the message issued by the United States Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, on Monday, on the occasion of the International Anti-Corruption Day. They focused on the part of the message speaking about the U.S. efforts to fight corruption through a comprehensive approach, and especially on the State Department’s ban of entry into the U.S to 40 public officials and their immediate family members due to their involvement in significant corruption in 2019.

“We will continue to use this authority globally to prevent corrupt officials of foreign governments and their immediate family members from traveling to and spending their ill-gotten gains in the United States,” the U.S. Secretary of State said. “On this day, we renew our call to all countries to address the scourge of corruption; effectively implement their international anti-corruption commitments, including those under the UN Convention against Corruption; support civil society and journalists, and take measures to promote open and accountable governance.”
