To illustrate the Russian efforts to increase their influence in the
region and especially in our country, Foreign Minister Ditmir Bushati
mentioned an example of one year ago.
Bushati mentioned the declaration of the Russian Embassy in Tirana a few days after the judiciary reform passed in the Albanian Parliament.
“We were surprised to read the declaration of the Russian Ambassador to Tirana, who was accusing the West of meddling with Albania’s internal affairs and for some kind of imposing that was done against Tirana, referring to the opposition, since we know they were the ones opposing the reform and criticized the visits we had during those days by high-level personalities”, Bushati declared.
However, the Foreign Minister says that the Russian presence in the region should not be seen as a threat, despite the different opinions on the principles shared by the Euro-Atlantic family.
