“Opening negotiations” / Fleckenstein: Albania met the prerequisites
There are voices in the European Parliament asking the commission to open negotiations with Albania. European MP Knut Fleckenstein, in an interview for Klan Plus, stated that preliminary conditions such as judicial reform, Vetting and the election were implemented.
“There should be no more deterrent conditions”.
“Today’s statement by President Juncker is not a big news! We all knew that in these five years there will be no new memberships. However, negotiations must continue, and we must even rush after the upcoming European elections. We should start the negotiations with Albania as soon as possible. “
You have publicly asked the European Commission for the official start date of the negotiations. What is their stand?
“They have not provided a concrete date. Not only me, but also the European Parliament asks the commission to act now. We wanted the judicial reforms to start, Vetting, the elections that were well done. So, as you see, the prerequisites are fulfilled. The most basic issues can be addressed during the negotiations, but we can not add any other obstructive issues at the moment. “
