Thousands of Albanians demonstrated in the capital, Tirana, protesting a controversial resort development project linked to Jared Kushner, son-in-law of former U.S. President Donald Trump. The protests, dubbed the “Flamingo Revolution,” center on concerns about environmental damage and a lack of transparency surrounding the project. Demonstrators are criticizing the current socialist Prime Minister for supporting the development, which involves construction on sensitive coastal areas. Environmental groups allege the project threatens the local ecosystem and could displace communities. Opposition parties are leveraging the discontent, further fueling the protests and calling for greater accountability. The scale of the demonstration highlights increasing public opposition to the resort and raises questions about foreign investment in Albania.
