US Embassy introduces new ambassador, Eric Wendt reveals priorities for

The new United States Ambassador to Albania, Eric Wendt, has made his public presentation and outlined the priorities of his assignment through a video message.

Wendt focused on strengthening defense capabilities and fulfilling commitments as allies, increasing trade and investment, and intensifying the fight against transnational crime.

Wendt further expressed his belief that through cooperation, Albania and the United States can build a future with greater security, economic opportunity, and shared strength.

The full message from the US chief diplomat:

Nice to meet you! I am Eric Wendt, the new Ambassador of the United States of America to the Republic of Albania.

As I begin my assignment as United States Ambassador to Albania, I would like to express my gratitude to President Trump and Secretary Rubio for their trust. I also want to thank the people of Albania for their warm hospitality and goodwill toward the United States of America.

During my previous military service with the Albanian Special Forces, as well as during my previous travels throughout Albania, where I met ordinary Albanians in their daily lives, I experienced firsthand that Albanians are an extraordinarily welcoming, hardworking, and proud people. Over the coming months, under my leadership as Ambassador, the United States Embassy will conduct an assessment process that will help shape our path forward.

As part of this process, I look forward to visiting various areas of Albania. In accordance with standard diplomatic practice, I will hold meetings with various political representatives of your choice, as well as with government officials, military leaders, representatives of the business community, the justice system, and leaders in other fields.

At the same time, I look forward to meeting with American and Albanian citizens. We will discuss both traditional ways and new and creative approaches to effectively cooperate in the future, focusing on three key areas of mutual benefit to the United States and Albania:

The first is: To become stronger. We become stronger when we build genuine defense capabilities and when each of us fulfills our part as an ally.

The second is: To become more prosperous. We will find ways to increase trade, investment, and opportunity, bringing mutual benefits to Americans and Albanians.

The third is: To become more secure. We will cooperate to fight transnational crime and protect our common interests.

As we conduct this assessment process over the coming months and chart the path forward toward a stronger, more prosperous, and more secure future, I also look forward to learning more about the Albanian people, your proud history, and experiencing once again your legendary hospitality.

I am truly honored and blessed to have the opportunity to serve as the United States Ambassador to Albania. The United States and Albania share a strong history, a deep friendship, and a mutual respect. Together, we can achieve concrete results. Let's go together!
