TIRANA, April 21 – Kosovar Interior Minister Zenun Pajaziti made a visit to Albania to meet with his counterpart and other top officials to further discuss strengthening the bilateral cooperation and collaboration in the fight against organized crime in both countries.
The two ministers, Pajaziti and host Bujar Nishani, stressed the will of the two governments to strengthen the institutional capacities in the fight against crime, human trafficking or integrated management of the borders.
