President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who made 14 official visits last year despite COVID-19 pandemic conditions, is set to kick off his first trip abroad in 2022 on Sunday as he pays an official visit to Albania, where he is set to meet Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama.

Axar.az reports that the President will reportedly deliver a speech at the Albanian Parliament and is also expected to inaugurate the Ethem Bey Mosque, which was restored by the Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA).

Erdogan will also inaugurate the apartment complexes built by Turkey in the Lac province, which saw major devastation after the magnitude 6.3 earthquake in late 2019 that killed 51, injured more than 900 and displaced nearly 17,000 people.
