The spokesperson of the US Department of State, Matthew Miller, disclosed details on the agenda of Secretary Antony Blinken, who is expected to arrive the next day for an official visit to Tirana.
In a press conference, Miller announced that Blinken's visit to Albania reaffirms the strength of the United States' relationship with Albania.
"Good afternoon everyone. Sorry for being a little late, or actually very late. I'll start with some opening comments about travel.
Secretary Blinken will leave tomorrow to travel to Tirana, Albania, and Munich, Germany. This will be the Secretary's first trip to Albania, and while there, he will reaffirm the strength of the United States' relationship with Albania.
Albania has been a strong voice in support of Ukraine's defense of its sovereignty and freedom against Russia's brutal aggression. Albania was a principled leader during its tenure on the UN Security Council and as OSCE Chairmanship for 2020, and is a key partner for stability and progress in the Western Balkans.
The Secretary will then travel to the Munich Security Conference as part of the delegation led by Vice President Harris. While in Munich, Secretary Blinken will hold bilateral meetings with global leaders and underscore the importance of the US' continued commitment to the NATO Alliance. The NATO alliance has ensured a historic peace for both the United States and Europe for the past 75 years and is helping the United States maintain an advantage over our adversaries for the future.
The Secretary will also reaffirm the United States' continued support for the people of Ukraine, continue discussions with partners on how to achieve lasting peace and security in the Middle East, and emphasize our unwavering commitment to transatlantic security. We will have more announcements about his individual meetings in Munich during the trip," said Miller.
