Minister of State and Chief Negotiator Majlinda Dhuka is reporting on the Council of Ministers' Report on the process of Albania's membership and integration into the European Union for the year 2025 and the four-month period January - April 2026.

During the reporting, it was emphasized that Albania must continue long-term efforts in key areas such as energy efficiency, renewable resources, infrastructure, as well as improving waste management, air and water quality.

Special attention was paid to food safety, which was assessed as a significant challenge for the economy and the integration process. According to the report, further modernization of the food safety system is required to achieve European Union standards.

Also, 12 acts are part of the reform agenda and 24 others have an approximation character with the legislation of the European Union.

"Albania will need to work in the long term on energy efficiency, renewables, infrastructure and other remaining issues such as waste, air and water."
