\n

\u201cWe have reached an important point for the future, not only for Albania\u2019s security apparatus and Armed Forces, but also for the economy and the future of Albania\u2019s youth.
An agreement has been signed with Fincantieri to establish a new company in Albania, Fincantieri Albania, together with our KAYO agency, to produce here in Albania, at the Pashaliman shipyard, vessels that will serve Albanian society as well as the armed forces of allied countries.
What makes this agreement special is that it aims to define a will and a vision to accompany this change with something new, something distinctive, which will certainly create an Italo-Albanian excellence here in our territory, while also serving other shipyards through the innovation it brings.
This agreement also opens the way for a new economic discussion for both companies, as we will be the first to benefit concretely from the products\u2014from the first two ships that will be built for our armed forces\u2014bringing the number of our fleet to seven. This is an optimal number in terms of Albania\u2019s role and responsibilities in the Mediterranean, and then, of course, production will continue for export,\u201d said Rama.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
