Why this matters
An extradition treaty with Albania would establish a formal bilateral instrument for surrendering fugitives between the two states, replacing or supplementing older arrangements. Its status is pending in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, meaning it is not yet in force and awaits advice and consent before ratification.
