    TIRANA, SEPT 2 (ATA) - Albanian Premier Aleksander Meksi received, Monday at noon, the Bosnian deputy President Ejup Ganic and the delegation he heads, says premier's press office.

    I am surprised with the Albanian's officials' stand and readiness to cooperate with us - said deputy President Ganic.

    He gave a picture of the situation in Bosnia and pointed out the projects his government and international community has for Bosnia's reconstruction.

    Meksi once more reiterated the Albanian government stand and suggested to set up a bilateral commission to treat as soon as possible concrete possibilities of cooperation.

    Both were of the opinion that cooperation in the fields of trade, transport, free movement of people, construction, bank cooperation, customs, science and sports were possible.

    Deputy speaker of the Parliament Margarita Qirko and General Secretary of Council of Ministers Arian Madhi were also present in the meeting. fh/sh/

While the DP has been and is open to direct dialogue and without mediation with all Albanian political forces which favour it.

    "In this context we welcome the invitation of the President of the Republic to hold dialogue with 14 political parties which is also in compliance with the recommendations of the last delegation of the Council of Europe which visited Albania recently." pas/ak/sh/

    [04] MUTUAL CONFIDENCE ESTABLISHED BETWEEN ALBANIA AND GREECE - leader

    TIRANA, SEPT. 3 (ATA) - The leader of the Human Rights Union party (HRUP) commenting on the visit of Foreign Minister of Greece Theodoros Pangalos to Albania said to the daily Rilindja Demokratike that mutual confidence has been established between Albania and Greece and any suspicion existing before has been dispersed.

    HRUP is a political force which supports mainly the Greek minority in Albania. Its leader Melo has accompanied Pangalos in his first visit to the South of Albania.

    The improvement of relations between Albania and Greece was noticed immediately after the visit of the Greek president Costis Stefanoupoulos to Albania in March this year. This visit was followed by the ratification of a treaty of friendship and cooperation by the Albanian parliament, visit to Athens of the former foreign minister Alfred Serreqi and the opening of three classes in Greek language in Gjirokastra, Delvina and Saranda a month ago.

    Melo said that the good relations between Albanians and Greeks, two ancient peoples in the Balkans, have always been a peace and stability factor in the region.

    "I am convinced that today there exists the wish and goodwill of both sides to promote friendship and cooperation. Our peoples and governments are totally conscious that the interests and motives which link them are of priority and determining character," Melo said.

    Melo called the forthcoming visit of President Sali Berisha to Greece "an event of special importance." pas/ak/sh/
