Albania protests over Trump's impeachment
Since the end of May, Albania has been experiencing widespread protests over a luxury tourism project linked to the Donald Trump family. The project is being built on protected natural lands and on an uninhabited island. Protesters oppose the project because they believe it threatens the environment and see it as a reflection of government corruption, aiming to maximize profits at the expense of natural areas. The protests included attempts by some demonstrators to breach security barriers and incite disturbances; they also threw stones, eggs, and tomatoes at the legislators' cars. The demands go beyond simply opposing the project—they call for the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama, citing anger over influence peddling and corruption. The project's estimated cost is $4.6 billion, and it is considered an environmental threat, especially as it seeks to turn Sazan Island—an old military base—into a luxurious tourist destination.
