Zaev: Macedonian harbor in Durres guaranteed by PM Rama
Macedonia claims to have a wholly owned Harbor in Durres. During a meeting held with representatives of the Macedonian Chamber of Commerce, Prime Minister Zoran Zaev said the project was guaranteed by Prime Minister Rama.
“Prime Minister of Albania assured us that we will have a harbor in Durres Macedonian which will keep the Macedonian flag. This competition can affect the conditions and services that the harbors will offer to Macedonian companies”.
In order to have more access to Macedonian companies using the Durres Harbor, the two Prime Ministers have discussed in the meeting between the two governments held last December in Pogradec and have made public this agreement, but without specifying more details.
The Macedonian Prime Minister’s statement has not been commented by the Albanian government. But before giving Skopje access to the Durres Harbor, Tirana should first make a decision for businesses from Kosovo.
Last year’s meeting between the two Albanian governments discussed the operation of an operational office at the Durres Harbor for the goods of entrepreneurs from Kosovo, a decision that is expected to be formalized at the next meeting that will be held in mid November in Peja city./tvklan.al
