Everts, we’ll miss you Dan Everts organized and led a farewell gathering with Albanian politicians, with whom he had negotiated for nearly two years as OSCE ambassador in Tiranë. “This is not a farewell reception; we have gathered to say goodbye to a friend of Albania,” President Meidani said in his address at the ceremony organized on the occasion of Everts’s departure from Albania. Nearly all representatives of the Albanian political class attended the reception. Only Berisha and Nano were absent. It is not yet known whether Everts acted like the U.S. ambassador, Mariza Lino, who chose not to invite two of the loudest protagonists of Albanian politics to the reception she organized on the occasion of her departure, or whether the two preferred not to respond to the invitation. The OSCE ambassador left Tiranë around ten days ago to take up the post of this organization’s representative in Prishtina. Everts headed the “Friends of Albania” Group for nearly a year, bringing together ambassadors and representatives of states and international organizations operating in Albania. The group was established to coordinate the aid to be provided to Albania to overcome the crisis and rebuild the country’s economy and institutions. “I will continue to remain a friend of the Albanians,” Everts said.
