Vaccines: EU, supply to the Balkans is our priority
Varhelyi, first AstraZeneca delivery to Albania in March
02 March, 10:33"We are working night and day to get vaccines for the Balkans through Covax and other initiatives. It is our priority," said the commissioner, underlining the difficulties that the EU itself has encountered in procuring the necessary doses.
Varhelyi added that "Europe wishes to be part of the region's economic recovery and in particular of Albania. This country had to face unprecedented challenges, including the pandemic, but also the earthquake that hit the country in November 2019." Finally, the commissioner remarked "the significant commitment" to support local economic recovery through the financial and investment plan for the Western Balkans. (ANSA).
