Albania’s PM Visits Kosovo

Albania’s Prime Minister Sali Berisha arrived in Pristina today for a two-day visit, his first since Kosovo’s declaration of independence.

Berisha will meet Prime Minister Hashim Thaci, President Fatmir Sejdiu, Assembly Speaker Jakup Krasniqi and other political party heads, as well as leading business figures.

It is expected that a raft of bilateral agreements will be signed during the visit, including: a border zone protocol; customs agreement; a pact on cooperation between border police; an agreement for the return of illegal residents; and a deal on the cooperation of local administrations.

Berisha will also address the Kosovo Assembly and pay his respects to former president Ibrahim Rugova’s family.
