Germany asks the Albanian government and parliament to implement the recommendations of the European Troika The spotlight of the US and the EU has turned toward Kosovo Kinkel government emigrants Yesterday, the German government, through its spokesman, expressed concern about the “serious” political situation in Albania. We are talking about present-day Albania. And not only that. In a deeper assessment, the chancellor would certainly have called it, quite plainly, an Albania with a “criminal past”. The German Chancellery made this statement yesterday through Chancellor Klaus Kinkel. He spoke in almost uncompromising terms about the government, which according to him is responsible for the situation and the recent developments in Albania. In essence, Kinkel outlined three very clear demands for Albania. First, the government must work “urgently” to calm the situation and restore a peaceful political climate in the country. Second, the Albanian government must correctly and without any delay implement the latest recommendations of the European Troika. And third, the government must show goodwill toward political reconciliation. According to the chancellor, the government's stability and financial support depend on these positions. Kinkel said that Germany will help only if conditions for reconciliation and the normal functioning of institutions are created in Albania. He called on parliament not to be an obstacle to democratic processes. At the same time, the attention of the US and the EU is strongly focused on developments in Kosovo.
