Te EU Commissioner for Enlargement, Johannes Hahn, said that the image that Albania is creating right now is making it very difficult for a positive decision regarding the EU accession negotiations.

The EU official used to describe himself as a firefighter and architect of peace in Western Balkan Countries.

However, he explained for Deutsche Welle that the government in Albania must approach to the opposition, so that they can be involved in constructive processes. “We are dealing with an image that Albania is creating in the international arena”, Hahn said.

When asked if the image will influence the EU accession negotiations, Hahn said that the EU Parliament Members are representatives of the people who only see the images on TV and find it hard to believe that this country is ready to start the EU accession negotiations.
