Ambassador Arjan-International Group: The wave of student and anti-government protests in Albania entered a new phase and thousands of young Albanians marched on the streets of Tirana, the capital of this country, and several other cities on Friday. This demonstration, which turned violent and clashed with anti-riot forces in its fourth day, was accompanied by damage to public property, breaking windows and burning trash cans in cities such as Tirana, Lege, Elbasan, Shkoder and Korca.
Protesters accuse Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama's government of corruption, neglecting their demands in recent months and destroying the education system. One of the main drivers of these protests is the public anger over the plan to hand over the virgin and untouched areas of the Albanian coast to build luxury entertainment complexes; A project supported by companies associated with Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of US President Donald Trump. The students chanted harsh slogans and warned the government, demanding the immediate resignation of Edi Rama before the crisis spreads further.
The nationwide demonstration of students in Albania was accompanied by throwing bricks at the building of the Ministry of Education and police intervention; Protesters are protesting college costs, financial aid, job prospects and social inequality.
Donald Trump claims to end eight wars and considers himself worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize; But the continuation of the crisis in Ukraine, Gaza and Iran, along with the problematic and purposeful role of Wittkauf and Kushner and the ambiguity about the interference of Trump's political and economic interests with the interests of the United States, have raised serious questions about the real goals of White House diplomacy.
Before traveling to Moscow, Witkoff and Kushner demanded to clarify the position of Ukraine and European countries regarding the new American proposal to end the war; A trip that reports say has been postponed.
