The presence of Greek parliamentary officials at polling stations in Himara city and in Greece's Çamëria properties has provoked the Parliamentary Foreign Policy Commission (PFPC) to propose a strong resolution regarding Greek actions.

"One country's economic transition difficulties should not be used as an instrument of pressure by another country but should, instead, be a basis for increased cooperation in developing mutual respect and partnership," states the resolution.

Recommendations were also made to work earnestly on solving traditional problems between the two countries, including repealing the Greek declaration of a state of war with Albania, returning expropriated Greek-Albanian Çamëria properties, legalising Albanian economic immigrants in Greece and ending all forms of discrimination against these immigrants.

"The mutual interests of Albania and Greece demand the involvement of respective parliamentarians and other state officials in supporting common European and Euro-Atlantic perspectives," reads part of the declaration.

The resolution had been slated for approval this week by the PFPC but, for technical reasons, it will instead come up for approval next week.
