Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama is in the United States, where he is holding a series of meetings and taking part in various activities as part of his visit.In New York, Prime Minister Rama attended the eighth edition of the European Corporate Council meeting, a platform that brings together representatives of businesses and institutions, along with people with experience in various fields, to discuss the challenges and prospects of economic and political development.

I want to say that it is a true honor and a privilege to join you.

This platform, that has been created to bring together some wisdom from improbable part, shows also something very very important, the understanding that peace is not a diplomatic achievement that precedes economic development, but it is a political condition that economic development make possible.

We should not forget that the true measure of progress is the horizon of possibilities we leave to those who come after us, and for everyone who comes after us all this horizon of possibilities is not our own country, but is our common world.

There are so many things we need to understand and to discuss with each other, and there is so much wisdom out there that Europe his not been able to capture and to adopt.
