Albanian Minister of Defence Ermal Nufi addressed the media following a cabinet meeting to outline several key initiatives for the Ministry of Defence. His discussion covered both Albania’s international military commitments and domestic plans for the development of the military industry and emergency management. A primary focus of the minister’s address was the potential deployment of Albanian forces to the Gaza Strip.
Nufi stated that an observation team has been dispatched to the region to assess the current situation directly and to evaluate the feasibility of deploying troops. This assessment process is reportedly being conducted in collaboration with international partners, including the United States and established force structures. Furthermore, the minister provided updates on Albania’s efforts to strengthen regional security through bilateral discussions.
He confirmed that talks are underway with Kosovo and Croatia concerning enhanced military cooperation, aimed at bolstering regional stability. Domestically, the ministry plans involve bolstering the national defense capabilities and improving emergency response mechanisms.
