The President of Albania, Bajram Begaj, received the Speaker of the Assembly of North Macedonia, Afrim Gashi, in a meeting, while the focus was on issues of cooperation between the two countries, the problems of Albanians in North Macedonia and other issues, reports Anadolu.

In an announcement from the Presidency of Albania, it is stated that the empowerment of the Albanian diaspora, which for President Begaj is the “power and heart of the nation”, was also one of the topics discussed in meeting.

“The meeting focused on the relations of friendship and cooperation between the two countries, the problems of the Albanians in North Macedonia, their rights with a focus on the Albanian language, fair and adequate representation in institutions and the need to unite the Albanian political factor when it comes to protecting the issues related to the protection of their rights. For President Begaj, the Law on Adequate Representation and the Ohrid Agreement are not for discussion, they are for implementation”, it is said in announcement.

According to the announcement, President Begaj asked for the commitment of Speaker Gashi in solving the demands of law students to take the exam in the Albanian language.

“Albanians are a state-forming factor in the Republic of North Macedonia. In a multi-ethnic state, coexistence and understanding between ethnicities are very important. The institutional guarantee with a binding legal framework of acquired rights and not a product of random balances is a guarantee more for the real advancement of the Republic of North Macedonia towards the integration processes in the EU”, Begaj emphasized.

Speaker Gashi visited Albania within the Albanian Diaspora Summit.
