Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama has attracted global attention once again after a video of him kneeling before Giorgia Meloni, the Prime Minister of Italy, went viral. This event, which took place during Rama's working visit to Rome, is noted as the third time this year he has performed such a gesture, highlighting his informal and theatrical diplomatic style. The official meeting at Palazzo Chigi focused on strengthening bilateral cooperation, particularly in areas like development, security, and Albania’s aspirations for European Union integration. Rama emphasized the historical support from Italian governments and praised Meloni's administration for its active engagement in strategic cooperation. Despite the formal nature of the visit, social media buzzed with reactions to Rama's kneeling, which some interpreted as a sign of respect while others found it overly dramatic for diplomatic protocol. This recurring gesture has sparked widespread debate online, drawing attention to Rama's unique approach to diplomacy.
