AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Democratic Party Shake-Up: Sali Berisha’s supporters celebrated his re-election as party leader after a leadership vote with no rival on the ballot, extending his grip until 2030 and deepening criticism that the process was more loyalty test than real contest. EU Security Boost: The EU approved a €21m military support package for Albania under the European Peace Facility, bringing total backing for the armed forces to €49m. Vlora Airport Standoff: Construction at Vlora’s international airport has stalled amid shareholder disputes and court cases, with the infrastructure minister warning of delays and reputational damage. Territory Enforcement: After a Saranda meeting on illegal builds and public-space occupation, the Vlora IKMT regional director resigned, following administrative steps over alleged failures to act. Prison Crackdown: Two inmates were arrested and six prison officials investigated after a contraband raid at Fier prison, including hidden phones and suspected drugs. Energy Update: Solar power rose 44% in Q1 2026, with renewables expanding fast. EU Accession Milestone: EU ambassadors approved the next Albania-EU intergovernmental conference in Brussels on May 26, tied to progress on “Fundamentals” and closing benchmarks for key justice chapters.
