NATO Secretary General with the Prime Minister of Albania 🇦🇱 Edi Rama, 17 SEP 2025

Описание: Remarks with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte and the Prime Minister of Albania, Edi Rama, 17 September 2025.

🗣 | NATO Secretary General:
Good morning.

It is a real honour to have my close friend, Edi Rama, visiting, the Prime Minister of Albania.

Albania is a staunch Ally. Albania will reach the 2% defence spending, this year, which is a great commitment.
Albania is developing its defence industrial base, including through its state-owned enterprise, which is important because we need a strong defence industrial base all over NATO.

You are helping a lot with Ukraine. For example, through our Command in Wiesbaden, where we have an Albanian delegation, but also through language training for fighter pilots, for technicians. So, you are doing a lot when it comes to Ukraine.

And outside Albania you are participating in our Forward Land Forces in Latvia and Bulgaria. You are active in Kosovo, through KFOR. So, you are really punching above your weight. You are quite tall. But still, Albania is not the biggest Ally, and Albania is doing a lot.

And therefore, I really want to thank you for being such a staunch Ally. We know that NATO can count on Albania. You know that Albania can always count on NATO.
So, again, thank you for visiting. Thank you for being such a close personal friend and for everything you are doing for NATO.
