The American ambassador in our country said that she will be in Albania even longer, although her term ends in January.
I have been in Albania for 3 years and I will be here for even longer. There is a big challenge here! There is history here and we should empathize and respect the history this country has gone through. This is a small place where everyone knows everyone else,' said Yuri Kim.
The American diplomat also focused on the implementation of the Justice Reform, where she emphasized that judges should deliver justice and not carry out personal vendettas, she called for the creation of the Supreme Court as soon as possible, which she said could be created in 3 the first months of 2023.
We have had continuous progress and real results that every ordinary Albanian understands are the real results. You have set standards of justice in Albania. You have started to reduce the backlog of court cases.
You created the KLJ to improve judicial efficiency. We are proud to be a partner with the EU not only in support of the HCJ. We know that the Justice Reform is important not only because it fulfills a requirement for EU membership, but for the Albanian people. 4 years ago in GJL he was a judge. I believe that within the first 3 months of 2023 the Supreme Court will have all members. We must find justice for people. The Albanian and American people look forward to courts that are trained with judges who are ready to deliver justice. Not revenge but justice. So that they know that when they come to court they are equal before the law. They will know that they will get justice in time.
We fully understand the frustration of the Albanian people, 'Justice delayed is justice denied'. That's why we have to give people the opportunity to
We need to make the backlog to 0. Complete the court and set priorities for the most urgent matters. There are reasons to be optimistic about this generation of Albanians. Reform in Justice is giving concrete results. The USA is in the direction of the Albanian people. There must be more, this is not a time to relax, we have done these things together. This is a human process, but the key is to remain seriously engaged. The US and the EU want you to succeed.'- said Yuri Kim.
