Edi Rama

Prime Minister Edi Rama today paid a visit to the International Court of Justice, where he was received by Vice President Kirill Gevorgian.

The focus of the Prime Minister's conversation was the division of the maritime border between Albania and Greece, where the two countries have decided to appeal to this court. Rama has stated that this serves the interest of both parties.

"Albania stands by the idea that presenting the issue of maritime areas with Greece before the International Court of Justice, to be resolved based on legal principles, serves the interest of both parties. But before taking this step, we need to reach the necessary agreement to take this case to the ICJ, and this agreement has not yet been reached. As you may know, this is not simply an agreement procedure between the lawyers and technical experts of each party. Our respective teams at the relevant ministries are working and we remain committed to moving in this direction ," Rama declared. 

At the end of the meeting, Prime Minister Rama also visited the premises of the Court and got acquainted with a brief history of the institution.
