										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TIRANA, July  28 /ATA/ Thousands of citizens are celebrating this evening at a festive concert in Scanderbeg square the 100th anniversary of relations between Albania and the United States of America, as well as the opening of EU accession negotiations with Albania.</p>
<p>This concert features popular artists who are performing their popular hits, such as Soni Malaj, Alban Skënderaj, Ylli Limani, Xhensila Myrtezaj, Çiljeta Xhilaga, Threedots, Anxhela Peristeri, Eneda Tarifa, Fifi and Flori Mumajesi</p>
<p>The concert is taking place against the backdrop of a festive atmosphere of celebrations.</p>
<p>The &#8220;Scanderbeg&#8221; square has been transformed into a large festive arena decorated with the stars of the European Union. The citizens who are dancing to the rhythms of the concert wave the flags of Albania, the US and the European Union.</p>
<p>Prime Minister Edi Rama and the government members were part of the large audience attending this concert.</p>
<p>The diplomatic relations between Albania and the USA were established on July 28, 1922, a few months after the Peace Conference in Paris, where American President Wilson supported the integrity of our country. The first American ambassador in Tirana was Ulysses Grant Smith, who started the diplomatic mission on December 4, 1922.<br />
The first Albanian ambassador in Washington was Faik Konica, who was appointed to this position in 1929 by Ahmet Zogu.</p>
<p>While on July 19, 2022, Albania took a historic step towards the integration of the country in the EU, that of the opening of accession negotiations after several years of waiting.<br />
