Today, on 11 June 2025, after having determined that Albania is sufficiently prepared to open negotiations, the Permanent Representatives Committee of the 27 Member States of the European Union, authorized the EU Presidency and the Polish Presidency sent today a letter to Albania requesting it to present its negotiating position on the four chapters included in Chapter Group 4 “Green Agenda and Sustainable Connectivity”. The negotiating position will be presented to the Sixth Intergovernmental Conference with Albania, which will be organized on a date to be announced soon by the Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
The chapters of Chapter Group 4 include very important areas for the economy, business, and that directly affect the daily lives of citizens and are a transformation factor for the long-term development of the country.
Chapter 14, which deals with transport policy, aims to improve road and rail infrastructure and safety;
Chapter 15 relates to the energy sector and ensuring a sustainable and affordable energy supply;
Chapter 21 focuses on trans-European networks and the infrastructural interconnection of Albania with EU countries, as an important part of the European Corridors;
While Chapter 27 assesses environmental protection and climate change mitigation, through high EU standards.
Through the negotiations of these chapters, Albania is expected to take concrete steps towards building safer and more modern roads, improving regional and European connectivity, ensuring clean and affordable energy supply, and protecting the environment for future generations.
This is a direct investment in the quality of life of Albanian citizens and the unstoppable transformation of the Albanian economy on the path towards the European family.
This decision of the European Union confirms Albania's successful progress in the accession process. It is a clear indicator of tangible progress in the implementation of economic reforms, of the preparation and capabilities of all Albanian institutions and economic actors, as well as the National Negotiation Team for accession, but at the same time reinforces the belief that the European Union supports a fair and credible enlargement process, based on concrete, measurable results and the fulfillment of European standards.
