Next year's summit was scheduled to take place in Tirana, but it will now be postponed, Prime Minister Edi Rama confirmed on his way to Thursday's European summit in Dublin.
At the same time, he rejected reports that the meeting would be held virtually or moved entirely out of the country.
“It will definitely not happen in 2027. But if there is a summit in 2028, it will be in Tirana. Everything else being discussed around it is just nonsense,” Rama said.
The summit in Albania has been questioned partly because of the recent large-scale political protests against the government and partly because of reports that US President Donald Trump has criticised the number of summits.
