The foreign secretary is expected to use the Berlin Process Summit, in the Albanian capital of Tirana, to seek greater co-operation on the movement of migrants.
Foreign Secretary James Cleverly has travelled to a summit in Albania in a bid to "tackle illegal migration".
Mr Cleverly is expected to use the gathering to seek greater co-operation on the movement of migrants, as the Government continues in its bid to stop cross-Channel small boats crossings. “Our partnership with Albania is doing just that. Through increased law enforcement co-operation, we have driven down small boats arrivals by Albanians by 90% on last year, and are returning those who have no legal right to remain in the UK.
While in Albania, Mr Cleverly will launch a British Chamber of Commerce in Albania to boost trade ties between the two countries.
