We categorically deny the statements made by Albanian officials regarding the alleged inclusion of the “Cham” issue in the talks between Greece and Albania.
It is one thing for the Albanian side to want to raise the issue and another for the issue to be accepted for discussion.
We call on the Albanian side not to raise issues that hinder the sincere and constructive dialogue that is under way. A dialogue that, thanks to the efforts of both sides, is helping to significantly improve the climate in Greek-Albanian relations and has already produced results to the mutual benefit of the two countries and their citizens.
