Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama arrives in Israel for a three-day visit that will have a particular focus on cybersecurity.
Rama is slated to meet this afternoon with Prime Minister Yair Lapid, who invited him to visit.
The Albanian leader will also meet with President Isaac Herzog, Knesset leader Mickey Levy and Finance Minister Avigdor Liberman, in addition to the head of Israel’s National Cyber Directorate, Gaby Portnoy.
In September, Israel offered cyber defense assistance to Albania, days after the Balkan state severed its diplomatic ties with Iran citing accusations that the Islamic Republic had carried out cyberattacks against the country in July.
