"Albania stands firm in the fight against organised crime and corruption, drugs and human-trafficking," Tahiri said.

"We have launched reforms in the sector of security and we are determined to push ahead with legal and restructuring reforms," the minister added.

Theresa May, however, said: "We are willing to intensify cooperation between the law-enforcement agencies."
