Albania has been a member of the Council of Europe since July 1995 but it has not yet abolished the death penalty, which still applies to seven different offences. None the less, Albania has applied a moratorium on executions since 29 June 1995, introduced with a view to its accession to the Council of Europe https://perma.cc/9565-93MK

On 10 December 1999 a decision by the Albanian Constitutional Court that the death penalty was contrary to the new constitution effectively abolished the death penalty in peacetime in Albania.

The last execution in Albania took place in 1995.

These diverging patterns of homicide victimization are most striking when com- paring Eastern European countries to the rest of the continent (Liem and Campbell 2014): in Eastern European countries such as Belarus, Moldova, and Ukraine the homicide rate ranges from 4.3 to 6.5 per 100,000. This pattern is also visible among other former Soviet nations such as Albania (5.0), Estonia (5.4), Latvia (4.7), and Lithuania (6.7). Russia 9.2.
