TIRANA, Nov 27 /ATA/ – Albania and Kosovo should assume shared responsibility and make the state borders between the two countries just formal ones, the Albanian Assembly Speaker said in her remarks at a joint session of the parliaments of Albania and Kosovo on Sunday.
“The challenges lying ahead of Albanians during this century, despite the fact we live in two different states, are common. Albanians also face common projects. Albania and Kosovo as two different political entities of the Albanians in the Balkans and both aspiring the European integration should share the responsibility to materialize the will of the Albanians to transform the state borders between the two countries, but also with the neighboring countries, into formal ones,” Speaker Nikolla said.
In her remarks at the joint session of Albania and Kosovo parliaments on the eve of the National Independence Day, Nikolla said: “This is an unforgettable day when parliaments of both countries come together to celebrate the 110th National Flag Day, when Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg’s flag was raised in Vlora in 1912 by the founding father Ismail Qemali.”
Speaker Nikolla noted that Albania and Kosovo are two independent, democratic countries and respected allies and friends of the United States of America and the two countries aspire to join the European Union in a very near future.
