BERLIN (Reuters) - Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama said on Sunday that an enhanced Central European Free Trade Agreement (CEFTA) for the Western Balkan region was within reach as his country seeks to make itself fit for membership of the European Union by 2030.
"Tomorrow it will be important to...fix the CEFTA mechanism," he said in an interview ahead of a Western Balkans summit hosted by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Monday.
