AIIS energetically sought to deepen and widen Albania ’s foreign policy and national security debate. The AIIS is the most serious think tank devoted to such topics. This institute has spawned public discussion about not just events in the Balkans, but wider European and Global issues. In a political milieu fraught with deep schism and vehement loyalties AIIS is known by both socialist and Democratic Party governments as a principal source of international information and contacts and is respected by international NGOs and foreign diplomats in Tirana.
