"I send my warmest congratulations on the long-lasting friendship of the USA as we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between our countries. When the USA defended the independence of Albania after the First World War, a permanent friendship between our nations was created, a common love for freedom and the values ​​of democracy which were never broken even during the decades of dictatorship. In the future, the US will continue to stand by Albania, while the country strengthens its democratic institutions, fights corruption and fulfills its journey to join the EU.
