According to the report, our country has made an increase by 11 points, reaching a total of 44 points, or a difference of 3 places higher, compared to last year.

In Albania, improvements in the justice system are appreciated, as the report notes that the prosecution and the specialized anti-corruption courts (SPAK) have gained the trust of citizens after convicting former ministers, members of parliament and mayors. “SPAK continues to investigate a former president, former prime minister and other high-level public officials,” the report says.
