Beyond the media hype, the agreement for the donation of three ships from Italy hides a strategic 'stunt', as security expert Artur Meçollari calls it.
According to him, the real goal of this movement is not to strengthen Albanian naval capacities, but to provide a legal solution to the problem that the Italian court created for the Meloni government by blocking the pact for migrants. Meçollari, in a conversation with the moderator of the show Kafe Shqeto on Syri TV, explains that "while Italian ships cannot transport migrants rescued at sea to the center in Gjadra without violating the law, Albanian-flagged ships can do so without a problem". 'The moment an immigrant boards an Albanian ship, it is legally considered that he has trespassed on Albanian territory. This completely bypasses the court's decision,' he emphasizes.
This analysis turns the agreement from an act of generosity into a well-thought-out political move to resolve an internal Italian impasse, using Albania as a key tool in the migration management strategy.
"The agreement is with the naval force for the three ships. Meanwhile, Kajo, Kajo has an agreement for the shipyard. Meanwhile, the naval forces have an agreement for three ships. the prosecutor's authority. They are. But the problem is that there is a trick there. And who is the trick? First of all, we have to admit that Albania, which has not received old ships for almost 20 years, received them after '97 both from the United States and from Italy, but in the last 20 years, starting with the ships, with the Arkenxël motor boats that the Americans gave and then with the production of new ships in Pasha Liman, we have not received old ships, but after 20, after...", he told Syri TV
