Armed Forces Assess First-Half Results: Improvements in Recruitment, Training and Modernization

The Armed Forces held a meeting to review the results of their work during the first six months of this year. Defense Minister Ermal Nufi said that the Armed Forces of the Republic of Albania had successfully achieved the main objectives for this period.

The review was attended by Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces Lieutenant General Arben Kingji, as well as the commanders and directors of Armed Forces structures.

During the meeting, progress was highlighted in several areas, including recruitment, training, operations, modernization, infrastructure and resource management, alongside the maintenance of security and operational readiness.

The reorganization of structures has helped improve command effectiveness and the use of resources. Meanwhile, cooperation with NATO, the United States of America and regional partners has helped strengthen the forces’ preparedness and interoperability.

Attention has also been devoted to increasing military capabilities through the acquisition of new systems and the implementation of strategic projects. In the coming period, the priority will be the full operational integration of these capabilities through personnel preparation, training and infrastructure development, with the aim of expanding operational capabilities and strengthening Albania’s contribution to collective defense.
