The European Commission has issued a warning to Albania regarding a €1.4 billion real-estate project linked to Donald Trump's family, urging immediate action to avoid jeopardizing the country's EU accession due to environmental concerns. This project, planned for ecologically protected areas like the Vjosa-Narta lagoon, has sparked ongoing protests in Albania, with demonstrators calling for its cancellation and Prime Minister Edi Rama's resignation. The controversial investment firm, Affinity Partners, linked to Jared Kushner, benefits from a 2015 Albanian law on strategic investments that Brussels has criticized for its lack of transparency and potential for favoritism.
