| Ilir Meta speaking at the first Convention of Freedom Party |
The logo of the Freedom Party (FP) is published, one day after the name change of the Socialist Movement for Integration (SMI).
The Chairman of the Organizational Committee of the Freedom Party, the President of Albania who just handed over the office a few days ago, Ilir Meta, has published the new logo in a post on social networks.
Meanwhile, today Meta, one day after holding the Convention where the changes in the statute were approved that paved the way for the change of the name, logo, and seal of SMI, will hold the first press conference from the headquarters of the Freedom Party.

| Logo of Freedom Party, former Socialist Movement for Integration |
It is worth noting that the Socialist Movement for Integration party arose as a necessity to speed up the process of Albania's integration into the EU as the political climate of that time was to intense and no Albanian politician really cared about the integration or the real development. While the initial orientation of Socialist Movement for Integration was close to the extreme left-wing, according to many analysts. While now that we are now talking, Albania has opened accession negotiations with the EU, so the very "mission" of this party ends here. But in order for the "Meta" family to stay in politics, a new fable must be invented, and this is the "Freedom Party" fable, which seems to lean towards the other extreme, right-wing political spectrum.
Must be noted that by some Western media and international institutions, the Meta family is considered one of the most corrupt in the Region.
