Cabinet

The cabinet includes the world's first AI minister, Diella, [3] serving as Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence. [4]

On 20 November 2025, the Special Court Against Corruption and Organized Crime ordered two security measures against Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Infrastructure and Energy Belinda Balluku: suspension from her governmental duties and a ban on leaving the country. The decision followed her being formally charged by the Special Prosecution Office in connection with the Llogara Tunnel affair, including alleged violations of equality in public procurement related to the tunnel project and the fourth lot of Tirana’s Outer Ring Road. Balluku had previously stated in parliament that she would not comment on ongoing investigations and had reaffirmed her support for the justice reform. [5]
