The air base of Kuçova is definitely an asset built in the Republic of Albania, but it is an asset that belongs to the Atlantic Alliance. So, in full coordination with NATO, if it is considered necessary and reasonable, we will be ready to support and train the Ukrainian military. Regarding the capacities, I assure you that the Kuçova base fulfills all the capacities and all the modern conditions of all the other NATO bases and it is also the newest and without a doubt has the highest operational standards. .', said the deputy prime minister.
