The free movement of goods is one of the most debatable topics for academics that are focused on European law. One of the four fundamental freedoms of the internal market with the potential to benefit consumers. Because of its complexities, it continues to be important and needs to be continuously studied and analyzed. Given this, the main goal of this paper is to prove if the free movement of Albanian goods toward the European Union is a positive indicator or not for the future. It will be an examination to better understand where we are as a country. To better understand the situation, the analysis will begin with a general overview of the free movement of goods and its significance, followed by a look at the opportunities and challenges that Albania will most likely face in the future. This study attempts to examine the progress of Albania in the area of the free movement of goods, as a country that aspires to be part of the European Union. It models such an analysis, which begins with the first agreement created for this purpose, such as the Stabilization and Association Agreement, and concludes with the most recent creation, The Open Balkan. The analysis conducted through this lens leads Albania to a better future if it adapts to European Union standards, but things cannot be that simple. The true challenges lie deeper and will be visible in the near future.
This study presents a comprehensive overview of the role of the Venice Commission in providing constitutional recommendations for Albania, Georgia, and Ukraine in their fight against corruption, as well as the measures taken by their governments to establish anti-corruption structures. The inclusion of these countries is motivated by the European Union's (EU) regulations and requirements for accession, which require significant progress in combating corruption and strengthening the rule of law as key criteria for membership. The Commission has been involved in providing recommendations and assistance to improve their legal frameworks and institutions in the fight against corruption, and its opinions carry significant weight as they are based on international standards and best practices in the field of constitutional law. By analyzing the Venice Commission’s work in Albania, Georgia, and Ukraine, one can understand the unique context and circumstances of each country and identify effective strategies for combating corruption and promoting good governance. This information can be useful for academics, and anti-corruption advocates who seek to comprehend the challenges and opportunities associated with corruption in Albania, Georgia, and Ukraine. This paper explores the Commission’s role and impact in these countries and assesses the effectiveness of its interventions in promoting good governance and transparency. One key finding of this study is the importance of political will in effectively combating corruption. The findings suggest that the Venice Commission has played a crucial role in supporting anti-corruption efforts in Albania, Georgia, and Ukraine, but more needs to be done to address the root causes of corruption and strengthen the rule of law in these countries.
