Justice Minister Jeton Shasivari, today, has held a meeting with European Union Ambassador Michalis Rokas, with whom he says, has discussed reform progress in justice and priorities on the road to European integration.

During the meeting, Ambassador Roka has presented the European Commission’s Progress Report for 2026, with special emphasis on assessments and recommendations related to justice.

We gladly agreed that our efforts and work in implementing reforms have yielded results, which have also been reflected in improving European Commission assessments compared to last year’s report.

These positive estimates are a confirmation of the work so far, but also an additional motivation and responsibility to continue with the same dedication to strengthening the rule of law, ensuring the independence of the judiciary and building more efficient and responsible institutions.

I appreciated my gratitude for the continued support of the European Union and reaffirmed our commitment to meeting the European Commission’s recommendations and obligations stemming from the Reform Agency. We continue with concrete reforms, sustainable results and a clear vision: more efficient justice, stronger institutions and a European future for our citizens, Shasivar wrote.
