Foreign Policy
Albania's foreign policy is centered on EU accession and deepening NATO integration. It maintains strong ties with the United States and supports Kosovo's independence as a core policy position. Albania has contributed troops to NATO missions in Afghanistan and peacekeeping operations.
Relations with neighboring Greece and North Macedonia are important but occasionally complicated by minority issues and historical disputes.
MUN Delegate Guide
As Albania, champion Euro-Atlantic integration and present yourself as a reform success story. Support Kosovo's international recognition at every opportunity -- this is your signature issue alongside Kosovo itself.
Coordinate with NATO allies and EU candidate countries. Emphasize your religious tolerance model -- in a world of civilizational conflict narratives, Albania disproves them. Push for Western Balkans enlargement and regional cooperation.
