TIRANA, June 18 /ATA/ General Director of State Police Ardi Veliu and his Kosovo counterpart Samedin Mehmeti signed today in Tirana the Memorandum of Cooperation on joint patrols of Albanian and Kosovo road police.
The memorandum was signed during the visit that Mehmeti paid at the State Police Directorate of Albania.
“The presence of Kosovo Police Patrols is probably a bit symbolic in terms of number or means, but I think that the presence of your services together with our services not only increases security, but it’s also an expression of cooperation with our police services. We have prepared a contingent of leaflets telling the citizens how to orient themselves, where to call, what phone numbers or what application to use and in case they will need us to answer them in the first time “, – said Veliu.
On his part, Mehmeti said that, “It is an honor, it is a privilege, it is a pleasure to be in the General Directorate of Police of Albania, to sign such an agreement. Our police officers have operated together with their Albanian colleagues and exchanged their best possible experiences, exchanged information and have established bridges of friendship. They still keep in touch with each other, which is very important for us.”/j.p/r.e/p.s./
