Italy, Albania and the United Arab Emirates signed a three-way clean energy cooperation deal Wednesday that calls for the Gulf country’s expertise to be put to use in Albania to produce solar, wind and other renewable energy, some of which would then be transferred to Italy via an underwater cable.
Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni traveled to Abu Dhabi to announce the deal, which further cements Italy’s partnership with Albania beyond the migration deal that saw Italy build two migrant detention centers in the Balkan country to process the asylum requests of some migrants.
