TIRANA, Oct 19 /ATA/ – A total of 120 Albanian citizens were voluntarily repatriated from France on Saturday, avoiding possible penalties due to failure to comply with deadline for the Schengen area stay.
This was one of the largest operations of voluntary repatriation of Albanian citizens, the head of the Airport Police Station, Përparim Dema said, adding that voluntary return is seen as an important element to prevent illicit travel to the Schengen area.
