U.S.-Albania Forum: Policy Brief Nr.1

Albania’s Progress Toward the European Union

At a time when Albania’s political progress is closely scrutinized by international institutions, with Tirana seeking to fulfill all requirements for European Union (EU) accession, a renewed focus is needed to assist Albania in its efforts. Albania’s domestic achievements during the past decade have been impressive, including NATO accession, extensive economic reform, and EU visa liberalization, but much still remains to be accomplished in order for Tirana to succeed in its bid for EU entry.
