September: Tiny Albania Stands Up to the Russian Bear

If you want to join the European Union, make sure you are at peace
with Athens. But Ferit Hoxha, Albania’s envoy to the UN and
rotating president of the UN Security Council for September, is
unperturbed about possible obstacles Greece may put in Albania's
way, regardless of certain disputes. PassBlue interviewed Hoxha and
Engjellushe Morina, a senior policy fellow at the European Council
on Foreign Relations, for this month's episode of UN-Scripted. We
discuss how Russia's invasion of Ukraine has helped Albania stand
out in the Security Council in its two-year term as well as the
country's push to join the EU. Hoxha also declares what he can't
wait to do in December, when his country's stint is up in the
Council. Tell us what you think of this episode @Pass_Blue Seton
