TIRANA, Albania (AP) — A coastal development project in Albania linked to Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner is facing growing opposition from environmental advocates and has triggered daily protests in the capital, Tirana.
To the deafening sound of drums, horns and whistles, thousands of demonstrators late Saturday chanted "Rama Leave!" — referring to longtime Socialist Prime Minister Edi Rama.
The rally drew participation from Albanian migrant communities abroad as the protests dubbed the "flamingo revolution" continue to gain momentum. The government says the development on the Adriatic coast would be transformational for the former communist nation as it seeks to enter the high-end tourism market and pushes for European Union membership.
