Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has been meeting southeastern European leaders, to secure more weapons and support in the war against Russia.

Zelenskyy and Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama are co-hosting a two-day summit in Albania, to encourage further aid for Kyiv.
It's Zelenskyy's first trip to Tirana since Russia invaded two years ago.

Jahja Muhasilovic, a political analyst on the Balkans and the Middle East, has told Al Jazeera from Bosnia’s Sarajevo that “Albania is known to be one of the staunchest supporters of limiting Russia’s influence here in the region.”

“In a way, Zelenskyy’s visit in Albania is having that geopolitical connotation. He is probably counting on the Western Balkan countries not to help them militarily because they are limited, but through their lobbying part that they can play in continuing the armament of the Ukrainian troops,” he said.

“Albania is also fighting the Serbian maligning influence that is also affecting Ukraine. Serbia has been acting as a little Russia in the region. The Russians are using Serbian networks in order to project their power here in the Balkans,” Muhasilovic added.
