Is TAP excluding Albania?

PM Rama says that the advantage of the agreement that the last government signed was the inclusion of Albania in the TAP project and congratulates the former Premier Berisha for his efforts.

But Mr. Rama raises a concern: Having an inside knowledge of the situation, and judging by the agreement endorsed by Albania and other countries, the former government has made the most discriminating agreement possible for our country. Hence, it hasn’t managed to come to an agreement, in which Albania would be as beneficiary as the other countries participating in the project”, says Mr. Rama adding that: “The former government has done nothing to enforce the gasification of Albania into the agreement”.

Regarding the possibility of resolving this problem, Mr. Rama says that: An agreement is legally binding. We’ll do whatever it takes to make up as much as we can, but we can only apply what has been signed for”.
