Thousands of supporters of Albania's political opposition took part in an anti-government protest Saturday, calling for the prime minister's resignation for alleged corruption and mishandling of the small Balkan nation's economy.
Sali Berisha, a former president and prime minister of Albania who leads the center-right Democratic Party, and former President Ilir Meta, who leads the left-wing Freedom Party, were among the protesters who gathered in front of the main government building with banners and shouted for Prime Minister Edi Rama of the ruling center-left Socialist Party to resign.
