Under Trump's Shadow: Is Albania Missing the European Train?
Donald Trump, Edi Rama and Vjosa Osmani /

Personal maneuver or diplomatic mistake with long-term consequences?

Edi Rama's participation in the grotesque Washington meeting, in a building that bears Donald Trump's name forever, could bring serious problems for Albania.

Where everyone who spoke shouted 'hosanna' to the American president, as if he were a king from the old days, almost all of United Europe was missing.

Apart from Viktor Orban, who is now a 'black sheep'; there was no European Union member state, nor any candidate country for EU membership, in the "Donald J Trump" palace.

Edi Rama, who seems to have completely slipped into Trump's shadow, faced with a European fury that is strongly affecting SPAK, was the only one from the Balkan candidate states for the EU on the Peace Board.

Montenegro, which is a country that has been considered a priority for membership, has not participated in this initiative, while Croatia, also a NATO ally, but also a close friend of Germany, has announced that it has not agreed to participate. Macedonia as well, and of course Serbia.

The blunder of the Albanian Prime Minister, who repeated the "shame on the financiers of The Hague" in Washington, clinging to the bars of Hashim Thaçi's cell, is very likely to cause problems for the country in its relationship with Europe.

It is not surprising that we have a political reaction from EU countries, mainly Germany and perhaps even France, to this stance of Albania.

This is because if it seeks EU membership, it must first be in line with European foreign policy.

But on the other hand, there is a possibility that there will also be a reaction from those "blitzkriegs" that Germany is carrying out, using all its power and influence.

Edi Rama seems to have been very embarrassed until he was unbalanced by 180 degrees. He is playing hard, as he is even more comfortable because he is in his fourth mandate and in front of him there is a 'gogol' that everyone fears. But in the end, what is damaged the most is Albania. Because the next train to the EU is being missed, that is, the one of 2030, it is very likely that it will not be caught again. As happened with Sali Berisha in 1997 or with Fatos Nano in 2003./ Pamphlet
