lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the Stabilisation and Association Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States and the Republic of Albania is a major achievement by the European Union on the road to the integration of the Western Balkans with the European Union. Albania, with its population of three-and-a-half million Muslims in the centre of the European continent is an important bridge for building a future Europe based on intermingling of cultures and tolerance for different religious traditions and civilisations. The EU Agreement gives Albania the opportunity to modernise, to build a lasting democracy, and for economic reform. A direct benefit will be the creation of a free trade zone, the rule of law and a functioning market economy. The present stage of relations between the European Union and Albania have set the political elite and Albanian civil society new tasks and perspectives. There are three problems I would like to draw your attention to: Firstly there is the question of dealing with nationalism, and the strategic political attempts appealing for a Greater Albania in other countries of the Western Balkans which have been addressed to the Albanian population. Albania now needs to re-direct its national interests towards European integration and peaceful co-existence within the European community, and to reflect on its own history and its role in the modern world. It needs to travel the road that other European nations have travelled in the last fifty years. The second issue is the rule of law, combating organised crime, and increasing the level of democracy. Albania has to ensure that the rights of national, ethnic and religious minorities are respected. The third problem is women’s rights. There needs to be an effective policy guaranteeing women safety and equality. There must be an end to violence against women in the family, and to eliminate the negative phenomena which Amnesty International referred to in its report of 30 March this year."@en1
