to the Great Britain.
The press office of the Foreign Ministry says that the participation of the Minister Haxhinasto was in the quality of the next President, on May 2012.
Haxhinasto declared that 14 May 2012 will be a historic moment for Albania.
“As partners, we are ready to lead this family of 47 members. We are ready to undertake the responsibilities for fulfilling the strategic objectives and the interests of the Council of Europe”, Haxhinasto declared.
