"Madam President, according to the 2014 progress report on Albania, continued reform to aspects of the social, political and judicial situation is needed. It is vitally important that Albanian sovereignty is respected but, equally, we must promote respect for universal principles such as fundamental rights, which have been mentioned here today.
It is encouraging to see that progressive steps have been taken by the Albanian Government in the area of fundamental rights. I particularly welcome improvements in legal recognition for LGBTI persons and the setting up of a working group on LGBTI rights in the Ministry of Social Affairs. There is, of course, more to be done to ensure equality for the LGBTI community in Albania. However, judging by recent homophobic comments from Unionist politicians in Ireland, there is also much to be done in EU Member States."@en1
