Defense Ministry Updates List of Dual-Use Items, Technologies

Minister of Defense Niko Peleshi announced the two decisions taken that belong to the institutions he leads, the first one having to do with the update of the list of dual-use items and technologies and promoting volunteerism.

At the end of the meeting of the Council of Ministers, Peleshi said that the Ministry of Defense decided to update the list of dual-use items and technologies.

"It is an obligation that comes from the EU but also to increase our national security. It means more security and protection", said Peleshi, while announcing the second decision which has to do with promoting volunteerism.

The second decision aims to promote volunteerism. We all know that there were no good days after the '90s. Today we are proud of the hundreds of volunteers who join us in dealing with natural disasters and civil emergencies. With this decision, we give the institution the opportunity to treat the volunteers with dignity. We have the opportunity to treat them with accommodation and transport, but also with a well-deserved dignified payment", said Peleshi.
