History
[edit]After the 2013 elections, Foreign Minister Ditmir Bushati announced that the government would close a part of their diplomatic missions due to an economic crisis. Consequently Albania closed its embassies in Kuala Lumpur, Lisbon, Sarajevo, and New Delhi in 2014 as a result.[1][2]
In 2014, the Foreign Ministry announced plans of opening embassies in Jakarta and Nairobi, as well as reopening the embassy in New Delhi.[3]
