(ANSA) - BRUSSELS - The future of Albania's process of joining the EU depends on its capacity to reinstate the political dialogue between the majority and the opposition, said Peter Stano, spokesperson of the outgoing EU Enlargement Commissioner, Stefan Fule.

"The European Commission has been following the situation in Albania with more attention and more expectations since it became an EU candidate country", he added while reminding that the country is now preparing for the next phase of the adhesion process - the start of the negotiations. "The Commission and the Member States are observing Albania's preparations and every action will be taken into consideration, Stano underlined, while explaining that the message from Brussels will not change when the new team takes over the EU executive, with Johannes Hahn as the Commissioner for enlargement. The necessity for the politicians to find a compromise and a constructive dialogue will still be at stake, Stano stressed. "The majority and the opposition need to reinstate the political dialogue especially at the Parliament, where the major political decisions are discussed", he concluded. (ANSA).
