Eras

  1. A 16th-century depiction of Sazan. Sazan — long known to Venetian and Ottoman mariners guarding the Bay of Vlorë — as drawn in a 16th-century Mediterranean chart. For centuries it was a strategic waypoint at the mouth of the Adriatic long before it became a fortress.
  2. The Italian occupation of Saseno, 1914. Italian forces landing to take Sazan — which they called "Saseno" — on 30 October 1914. The claim was recognised by the 1915 Treaty of London, and the island became the Italian Royal Navy's southernmost outpost.
  3. Italian stamps overprinted for Saseno. Italian postage stamps overprinted "SASENO" for use on the occupied island in 1923 — a small artifact of the decades Sazan spent flying the Italian flag.
  4. The Soviet split — and a sealed island. When Enver Hoxha broke with Moscow and aligned Albania with Mao's China in 1961, the Soviets were expelled and Sazan became a closed Albanian military zone — sealed off from the public for the rest of the communist era and beyond.
  5. Sazan from the sea. The island of Sazan rising from the Adriatic — green, rugged and, for decades, entirely off-limits.
  6. The Karaburun coast. The wild, roadless cliffs of the Karaburun peninsula facing Sazan across the strait — the undeveloped Adriatic shoreline the resort plan would reach.
  7. Sazan seen from Vlorë. The view across the bay from Vlorë to Sazan on the horizon — the island that guards the city's harbour and now divides the country.
  8. The abandoned garrison buildings and port. The derelict barracks, depots and small port of Sazan, photographed in 2018 — the crumbling bones of the military settlement that crewed the island's guns and submarine pens through the Italian and Soviet years.
  9. The bunkers and ruins on Sazan today. Concrete bunkers and abandoned military buildings on the west coast of Sazan, photographed in 2018 — what remains of the fortification network dug to let the base survive an attack and control the mouth of the Adriatic.
  10. Bunkers, tunnels and an alleged weapons plant. A decade of digging honeycombed the island with bunkers and tunnels built to survive a nuclear strike, plus fortified submarine pens. Sazan is also rumoured — never confirmed — to have housed a chemical and biological weapons facility; gas masks still lie scattered in the abandoned tunnels.
  11. The Soviet submarine base. After 1947, Sazan and the neighbouring Pasha Liman base became a forward Soviet naval outpost — home to Whiskey-class submarines and thousands of soldiers, the USSR's deepest foothold on the Mediterranean during the early Cold War.
  12. Drone over Sazan and the Karaburun coast. Aerial footage of Sazan and the wild Karaburun peninsula across the strait — the rugged, undeveloped Adriatic coastline that the resort plan would transform.
  13. The Vjosa-Narta lagoon and its flamingos. The Vjosa-Narta protected area is one of the Adriatic's most important wetlands — salt pans, lagoons and a key migratory stopover where flamingos gather, the ecosystem that would give the protests their pink symbol.
  14. Karaburun-Sazan, Albania's only marine park. Sazan sits inside the Karaburun-Sazan Marine Park, Albania's first and only marine protected area — seagrass meadows, caves and clear water that conservationists say a mega-resort would put at risk.
  15. The Narta lagoon. The shallow, salt-fringed waters of the Narta lagoon in the Vjosa-Narta protected area — one of the Adriatic's great wetlands and a refuge for migratory birds.
  16. Flamingos over the wetland. Flamingos in flight over the Albanian wetlands — the birds whose pink silhouette would become the emblem of the revolt.
  17. Sazan — Albania's sealed island. Sazan, at the mouth of the Bay of Vlorë, is Albania's largest island: a strategic outpost that served as a sealed military base through the communist Hoxha era, dotted with bunkers and tunnels and off-limits to the public for decades.
  18. The Albanian government says many of the threats facing the Vjosa River are “old problems” but. the facts are: The problems are continuing without consequence. The government has had years to act on them. The pollution is getting worse. And these aren’t just problems. They’re environmental crimes. We call on the Albanian Government to: 1️⃣ Stop the pollution 2️⃣ Enforce the protection of the park 3️⃣ Publicly commit to real solutions — with a timeline.

  19. A Kushner-linked vehicle wins "strategic investor" status. In 2024 a Kushner-linked developer — reported as Atlantic Incubation Partners, with the project run through Sazan Real Estate Development LLC — was granted "strategic investor" status by the Albanian government to build on Sazan and the Portonovo coast.
  20. Tradhëtari i kombit është më i rrezikshëm se armiku, sepse armiku të vjen përballë, kurse. tradhëtari ta shkatërron shtëpinë nga brenda. Ai shet gjakun e dëshmorëve për interesa personale, për pushtet apo për një karrige. Historia nuk i nderon tradhëtarët i varros me turp. Emrat e tyre nuk përmenden me krenari, por si paralajmërim se çfarë ndodh kur njeriu e shkel kombin për vete. #zëriivlerave 🇦🇱

  28. Saseno — the island Italy couldn't hold. Italy seized Sazan — which it called "Saseno" — in 1914, a claim recognised by the Treaty of London in 1915. It became the Italian Royal Navy's southernmost base and the most heavily fortified small island in the Mediterranean, guarding the Strait of Otranto at the mouth of the Adriatic, until Italy ceded it to Albania after the Second World War in 1947.

  30. E vërteta e Vjosë–Nartës. Ndërkohë që institucionet vazhdojnë me deklarata kontradiktore dhe përpjekje për të minimizuar situatën, në terren Vjosë–Narta po zhduket para syve tanë. Ekskavatorët po shqyejnë çdo copë të tokës së mbrojtur, duke varrosur nën çakull pyllin bregdetar, dunat ranore dhe habitatet më të rëndësishme të deltës së Vjosës. Sot, bashkë me partnerët zhvilluam një konferencë për shtyp duke sjellë dëshmi, fakte dhe pamje nga terreni mbi realitetin brutal që po fshihet pas propagandës dhe heshtjes institucionale. Vjosa–Narta nuk është shesh ndërtimi dhe nuk do të lejojmë të sakrifikohet në heshtje. Të shtunën në orën 11:30, protestojmë. 📍 Hidrovori, Akërni, Vjosë–Nartë Nisja nga Tirana: Opera dhe Baleti | 08:30 Nisja nga Vlora: Sheshi Xhamia | 10:30 HIQNI DUART NGA VJOSË–NARTA  - The Truth About Vjosa–Narta While institutions continue issuing contradictory statements and attempting to minimize the situation, on the ground Vjosa–Narta is being destroyed in plain sight. Excavators are tearing through protected land, burying beneath gravel the coastal forest, sand dunes, and some of the most important habitats of the Vjosa - Narta Protected Area. Today, together with our partners, we held a press conference presenting evidence, documented facts, and footage from the field, exposing the alarming reality hidden behind institutional silence and misleading narratives. Vjosa–Narta is not a construction site. And it must not be sacrificed in silence. This Saturday at 11:30 AM, join the protest. 📍 Pomp station, Akërni, Vjosa–Narta #handsofvjosanarta
  31. Protestë e shoqërisë civile dhe banorëve kundër ndërtimeve në zonën e mbrojtur të Hidrovorit. të Akërnisë Mbi 100 protestues, përfaqësues të shoqërisë civile dhe banorë të zonës, janë mbledhur në Hidrovorin e Akërnisë për të kundërshtuar punimet që kanë nisur prej disa ditësh në brendësi të pyllit, një zonë e mbrojtur mjedisore. Gjatë protestës, qytetarët kanë shembur rrethimin e vendosur nga firma që po kryen punimet, duke kërkuar ndërprerjen e menjëhershme të ndërtimeve dhe transparencë të plotë mbi projektin që po zbatohet në këtë territor. Protestuesit theksojnë se kjo zonë është pasuri publike dhe e mbrojtur me ligj, ndaj çdo ndërhyrje duhet të jetë e konsultuar me komunitetin dhe të respektojë legjislacionin mjedisor. Ndërkohë, situata po ndiqet nga afër edhe nga forcat e policisë, të cilat ndodhen në terren.

  33. Serious damage is happening right now in the Vjosa-Narta Protected Area in Albania ❗. ❗ Since the end of April, bulldozers and excavators have been destroying coastal forests, removing dunes, and cutting roads through untouched habitats in the heart of this protected area. The Albanian Government must halt construction immediately and take its commitments towards EU serious!

  35. Bulldozers on the beach. In May 2026 excavators and heavy machinery began work in the Vjosa-Narta area — opening access routes, digging into the sand, clearing land among the pines. Videos of bulldozers on protected beaches lit the fuse for the protests.

  39. Barbed wire and the first clashes. Developers strung barbed wire across the sand to block beach access; demonstrators clashed with private security guards on the coast — the confrontation that turned local anger into a national movement.

  43. The Southern #Albanian coastal region of Zvërnec near the city of Vlora is known for its. biodiversity and precious nature, specifically around the Narta Lagoon. In 2024, Prime Minister Edi Rama’s government amended a constitutional clause allowing for investment and construction in protected areas. Jared #Kushner, the son-in-law of US President Donald #Trump, has been highlighted as a major investor in the region — much to the dismay of locals who have protested the move amid uproar against the Rama government. Kushner plans a similar project in Sazan, Albania’s only major island. The issue has drawn significant attention against the historical backdrop of Albanian territorial sovereignty. We at Arbanon Magazine will follow developments closely, including in-depth reporting on the ground this summer.

  45. I fenicotteri che vedi nel video vivono nella Laguna di Vjosa-Narta, in Albania.. Un paradiso unico nel Mediterraneo che rischia di sparire sotto una colata di cemento extra-lusso. 💔 🌍Vjosa-Narta è una delle tappe più importanti della Rotta Migratoria dell'Adriatico. Ogni anno, oltre 20.000 uccelli di 200 specie diverse (tra cui i rari Pellicani Ricci e i Fenicotteri Rosa) usano questa oasi per riposare e nutrirsi. Se distruggi questo ecosistema, interrompi una catena migratoria internazionale. ✈️Proprio in mezzo a questo paradiso, il governo sta completando un aeroporto internazionale. Lo scalo servirà a portare i turisti facoltosi direttamente nei mega-resort da oltre un miliardo di dollari che Jared Kushner (genero di Donald Trump) sta costruendo a Zvërnec (10.000 unità abitative) e sull'Isola di Sazan (un'ex base militare incontaminata trasformata in resort extra-lusso). 🛑Lo Stato sta espropriando terreni a molti residenti locali. Intere spiagge e aree naturali frequentate da generazioni sono state recintate: l'accesso ai cittadini ora è vietato. ⚖️Per far spazio alle ruspe, il parlamento albanese ha modificato le leggi che proteggevano le aree naturali, ignorando i richiami dell'Unione Europea e calpestando sia i diritti dell'ambiente che quelli dei propri cittadini. ​Quello che sta succedendo a Narta non è "sviluppo", è la svendita di un patrimonio naturale e sociale in nome del profitto privato. Non lasciamo che questa storia passi sotto silenzio. ​Condividi questo reel e fai girare la voce. @blueheartrivers #Albania #Sazan #Zvërnec #SaveNarta#Biodiversità

  48. These videos coming out of Albania of locals protesting Kushner’s luxury resort project are. every activist’s dream. Albanians are known for their resistance and honor. Watching people stand up for their communities like this is inspiring. Bosnians should take note considering there is a $1 billion gas pipeline deal threatening Bosnia, also run by Donald Trump’s inner circle. THIS is what change and resistance looks like! I wanna be friends with Albanians!! Never been to Albania but when I go, it will be with a megaphone to join these amazing protesters!!! 📣 Y’all are THE energy!! 🇦🇱👐🏼 In the meantime, reach out if I can help or organize from here! 🇦🇱 WATCH PREVIOUS VIDEO FOR MORE CONTEXT #albania #trump #news #balkan #bosnia UPDATE 🚨 footage is coming out of Vlore, where locals are protesting an airport being built which is threatening the last wild flamingo population in Europe. This project will be impacting 200 different bird species. 33 endangered species face critical danger. This week they installed a barbed wire fence and rolled in bulldozers, signaling the beginning of their project. A security guard also assaulted a protester this week. PROTECT ALBANIA & STAND WITH THE LOCALS. Diaspora needs to clock in! 🇦🇱
  49. Bad times create strong people.. The new generation of Albania will not be intimidated by power, corruption, or those who think they own this country. No politician is stronger than the will of a people determined to reclaim their future. Stand tall. Stay fearless. The time is now.
  50. The protest reaches Tirana — 1 June. On 1 June 2026 the movement reached the capital. Crowds filled the streets chanting "Albania belongs to Albanians" and carrying placards reading "Hands off Vjosa-Narta".
  51. Zvërnec on the lagoon. The village of Zvërnec on the edge of the Narta lagoon — one of the small communities where the revolt against the resort began.
  52. The monastery island of Zvërnec. The 13th-century monastery on its tiny pine-covered island in the Narta lagoon — the kind of fragile, storied landscape protesters say a mega-resort would overwhelm.
  53. Mijëra qytetarë janë mbledhur sot në bulevardin përballë Kryeministrisë për të protestuar. kundër projekteve të ndërtimit në Zvërnec, në një nga reagimet më të mëdha qytetare të muajve të fundit. Por përveç protestës, vëmendjen e pjesëmarrësve e ka tërhequr edhe një tjetër detaj shqetësues. Në tarracën e godinës së Ministrisë së Brendshme janë vënë re disa persona që fotografojnë dhe filmojnë turmën e protestuesve. Pamjet kanë ngritur pikëpyetje dhe reagime mes qytetarëve, të cilët pyesin se për çfarë qëllimi po kryhet ky monitorim dhe nëse po mbahet evidencë e personave që kanë marrë pjesë në protestë. Në një shtet demokratik, e drejta për të protestuar është një e drejtë kushtetuese dhe çdo veprim që perceptohet si presion apo intimidim ndaj qytetarëve ngjall shqetësim publik. Ndërsa qytetarët kërkojnë transparencë për atë që po ndodh në Zvërnec, lind edhe një tjetër pyetje: pse duhet të ndihen të vëzhguar ata që dalin në shesh për të shprehur mendimin e tyre? #tirana #albania #shqiperi #shqiperia #vrojtuesitnews
  54. We are not afraid. You will not intimidate us. Bandits, gangsters, and thieves cannot silence people who stand on the side of freedom, justice, and truth. Our protest is peaceful. Our cause is just. We will continue to defend our country, our rights, and our future without fear. No intimidation will stop us from raising our voices.#albania #corruption #edirama #protest #fyp

  80. The Daily Show: "read the room". As bulldozers met protesters, The Daily Show mocked Ivanka and Jared for failing to "read the room" — talking about their Albanian island paradise while the country it belongs to took to the streets against them.
  81. The flamingo becomes the flag. Flamingos became the emblem of the revolt: protesters carried pink cutouts and inflatables, and re-coloured the Albanian flag — swapping the black eagle for a flamingo and the red field for the blue of sea and wetland.
  82. Rama on CNN: "Let me finish!". On 3 June 2026 Edi Rama clashed live on CNN International, angrily telling the anchor "Let me finish!" as he defended the Kushner-linked $1.5bn resort against questions about environmental harm and corruption.
  83. Rama: "not to pour concrete over the heads of flamingos". Rama's defence: "The challenge is not to pour concrete over the heads of flamingos. The challenge is to prove that development and nature can not only coexist, but that nature and development need each other."
  84. "2000"
  85. Endangered species at risk. The government’s response to three days of protests? Compare it to Costa Navarino in Greece, a resort that took 27 years of planning, a ministerial decree establishing a legal zone in 2001, and full environmental studies before a single machine moved. 😅 Zvërnec had bulldozers in the ground before a completed project existed. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Albania was also just elected President of Forest Europe (the continent’s most important forest and biodiversity policy platform) for the next four years. The 45 countries that voted for that presidency will be reading about SPAK freezing assets linked to the land deal. They will be reading about machinery operating in a protected zone without an EIA. They will be reading about private security beating protesters while police watched. Leading European environmental diplomacy abroad while bypassing environmental law at home is not a success story! It is a contradiction. 😵‍💫 Note: the €1.4 billion figure in the video refers to the Sazan island project. The total development including Vjosa-Narta is even higher, at to €4 billion. 💰💰💰 Once again, I’m not against investments, development, and luxury resorts. I just think the legal process exists for a reason. Do the EIA. Do the public consultation. And then build. In that order!!! #VjosaNarta #albania #handsoffvjosanarta #protectvjosanarta #albanianature

  87. Sot qytetarët treguan se asnjë kordon policie nuk mund të ndalë një kauzë të drejtë.. ë. Pavarësisht përpjekjeve për t’i penguar dhe për t’u mohuar të drejtën kushtetuese për të protestuar, qytetarët qëndruan të vendosur dhe arritën ta çajnë bllokadën e ngritur ndaj tyre. Në mesin e tyre kishte gra, të rinj, të moshuar dhe familjarë që kishin dalë për të ngritur zërin kundër padrejtësive. Ajo që ndodhi sot është dëshmi se frika po ndryshon krah. Një pushtet që mobilizon policinë kundër qytetarëve të vet tregon dobësi, jo forcë. Ndërsa qytetarët që përballen paqësisht me presionin dhe nuk tërhiqen, tregojnë se demokracia ende jeton. Sot fitoi e drejta për të protestuar. Sot fitoi qytetaria. Sot fitoi guximi përballë arrogancës së pushtetit. Sa më shumë të përpiqen ta mbysin zërin e qytetarëve, aq më i fortë do të bëhet ai 💪 🇦🇱
  88. A $1.6bn resort — part of a €4bn vision. The Sazan investment was valued at $1.6bn; PM Rama framed it as part of a four-billion-euro project spanning the Vlora area — luxury hotels, apartments and villas on a former military island and a protected delta.

  90. Albanians took to the streets to protect their coastline from a $4 billion luxury resort. linked to Jared Kushner — built on protected land, pushed through with questionable permits and backed by a government that changed the laws to make it happen. #albania #kushner #sazanisland #tirana

  98. ALBANIA IS NOT FOR SALE 🇦🇱 And its protected lands are not Ivanka's little "project.". " People are taking to the streets all over Albania, and internationally, to protest their Prime Minister's shady backdoor deal with Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, and their billionaire investors. The Prime Minister secretly had environmental protection laws changed in order to sell off Sazan Island, a protected national marine sanctuary, and Vjosa-Narta Delta, sacred coastal wetlands, for billion dollar resorts. Worth noting that Sazan Island was a top-secret Cold War military base, full of bunkers and underground tunnels 🤔 And bulldozers are already destroying the delicate ecosystem in Narta, a vital sanctuary for more than 200 bird species, plus salt-tolerant plants, diverse fish, amphibians, reptiles, wetlands, and pine forest habitats. I just happen to be 10 km from Narta, in Vlore, where I can see Sazan from my balcony. I stand in solidarity with Albania and the protesters, who I heard from inside my apartment tonight, marching through the streets of Vlore's Lungamore 🇦🇱 #sazan #albaniaisnotforsale #vlore #albania🇦🇱❤️ #narta
  99. We will resist ️‍. ❤️‍🔥
  100. "Albania is not for sale". The defining chant and banner of the Flamingo Revolution — "Albania is not for sale" / "Nation is not for sale" — a refusal to let a protected island and wetland be handed to foreign elites.
  101. Rama: "no chance this investment will be stopped". The prime minister vowed not to budge: "There is no chance that this investment will be stopped as long as I am here" — and dismissed fear of "an extraordinary project... where exceptional partners have come together to invest four billion euros."

The question that started all of this is still unanswered: why did construction start in a protected wetland before a single environmental impact assessment was completed? 70,000+ signatures and the number keeps growing.

Activists dubbed the weeklong movement against the construction as the "Flamingo Revolution," and say wildlife in the Vjosa-Narta protected zone will be destroyed if the project goes ahead.

  219. Albanien steht nicht zum Verkauf.. Je mehr über dieses Projekt bekannt wird, desto mehr Fragen stehen im Raum. Wenn alles transparent und im Interesse der Bevölkerung geschieht, warum wird dann wegen möglicher Korruption ermittelt? Warum versucht man, uns zu erzählen, dass dieses Projekt gut für Albanien sei, obwohl die ganze Bevölkerung dagegen ist? Die Regierung spricht von Tourismus und Entwicklung. Doch die Menschen sehen etwas anderes. In Albanien und auf der ganzen Welt protestieren Tausende gegen dieses Vorhaben. Die Bevölkerung will es nicht. Trotzdem wurde hinter verschlossenen Türen entschieden. Und es geht hier nicht nur um den Bau von Luxusvillen. Es geht um die Zerstörung eines einzigartigen Naturraums, um die Vertreibung von Menschen und um die Auslieferung unseres Landes an die Interessen von Superreichen. Zufälligerweise handelt es sich dabei um Investoren wie Ivanka Trump und Jared Kushner. Diese Insel ist nicht einfach irgendeine Insel. Sie ist Teil unserer Geschichte, unserer Natur und unserer Zukunft. Sie liegt an einem strategisch wichtigen Ort im Mittelmeer. Dort befinden sich Bunker und militärische Hinterlassenschaften. (Was für ein Zufall) Wer glaubt, es gehe hier nur um Tourismus, stellt keine Fragen. Ich stelle diese Fragen. Denn Albanien ist keine Ware. Unsere Natur ist keine Ware. Unsere Tiere sind keine Ware. Unsere Menschen sind keine Ware. Wir dürfen nicht zulassen, dass die Reichsten der Welt sich nehmen, was ihnen gefällt, nur weil sie es können. Albanien gehört seinen Menschen.

  249. Why are thousands of young Albanians suddenly flooding the streets?. ? 🦩Why has Albania’s anti-corruption agency frozen accounts linked to Jared Kushner’s planned luxury development on protected coastline land? 🦩Why is one of the most strategically sensitive islands in the Balkans being turned into a billionaire enclave tied to offshore shell companies and foreign political networks? 🦩And why does a former military fortress sitting at the gateway between the Adriatic and Mediterranean suddenly matter to global elites? For centuries, empires fought to control Sazan Island. Now protesters are asking why Albania’s public land, coastline, and strategic territory are being handed over behind closed doors. This is about who gets to decide the future of Albania. The flamingos became the symbol. The youth became the movement. And the questions are only getting louder.

Podiumi i popullit 🎙️ Fjalimi i artistes belge-shqiptare @galadragot: “Unë nuk kam lindur këtu në Shqipëri, por jam rritur në një familje shumë të lidhur me problemet e Shqipërisë. Unë jam këtu për t’ju kujtuar që duhet të keni kurajë pa fund, që të rrëzoni këtë klasë politike të kalbur. Mos lejoni elemente politike të ndotin lëvizjen tuaj. E ardhmja është e jona, dhe çdo qeveri që nuk na ndihmon ne të ndërtojmë të ardhmen tonë, është armiku ynë.” Çdo natë në shesh, 19:00. Bashkohuni! O sot o kurrë! — The People’s Podium. The speech of the Belgian-Albanian artist @galadragot: “I was not born here in Albania, but I was raised in a family closely connected to Albania’s struggles. I am here to remind you that you must have endless courage to bring down this rotten political class. Do not allow political elements to corrupt your movement. The future is ours, and any government that does not help us build our future is our enemy.” Every night at the square, 19:00. Join us! It’s now or never! 🎥 @mei__seva

  264. The company bulldozing a protected Albanian wetland is owned through Dutch shell companies in. Amsterdam. The same hidden owners control jet fuel at Albania’s main airport and a healthcare network under criminal investigation. All kept anonymous through a legal Dutch loophole: stay under 25% ownership and your identity never has to be disclosed. My opinion is that the Netherlands should do something about this strange law as it fuels corruption worldwide. Dutch corporate law is being used as a shield to hide who profits from projects under criminal investigation.

  265. A young woman’s heartfelt plea for Albania. The Flamingo Revolution continues.. Thousands of citizens have mobilized against the political class, hoping for a new Albania, standing up against oligarchy, corruption, and the luxury resort projects of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump on protected nature reserves. — Thirrja me zemër e një vajze për Shqipërinë. Revolucioni Flamingo vazhdon. Mijëra qytetarë janë mobilizuar kundër klasës politike, me shpresën për një Shqipëri të re, duke u ngritur kundër oligarkisë, korrupsionit dhe projekteve luksoze të Jared Kushner dhe Ivanka Trump në zonat të mbrojtura.

  266. If the law will not protect nature, than we will.. Link in the bio🙏 #flamingorevolution —————— I made this video a few years back for a different cause but for the same location and purpose(at its core). I am putting it here just because I want you to see the similarities and parallels and draw your own conclusions but there’s a pattern #hinthint #emviormentalimpactassment #lackoftransparency #ecocide Description Year 2022: Even though there’s 1001 health, economic, touristic and environmental reasons to keep fossil fuels out of Vlora Bay, here’s just one more before the 2 ships that will burn 600,000 KG of heavy oil a day arrive in Vlora! SO, reason nr 6️⃣ The “protected areas”…Narta Lagoon being the closest. From its Flamingos to its Gem of an ecosystem, no one will actually be able to protect them if this thing happens.
The environmental impact assessment (which experts tell me it’s basically a joke) says that these areas won’t be affected but, it doesn’t take a peice of papper to understand how that is not true.
Its damage its calculated that affects up to a 50km radius thus, drumroll…It affects all the protected areas around the ships ( or maybe we should better call them generators).
Not to mention this very assesment is done from a consultancy company that is a partner in a project together with the contracting company of the heavy oil power plant. 
There’s gotta be some legal meassure for such conflict of interest but anyway at the very least this assessment should be re-done..properly.
There’s little time but, as I’ve heard there’s still some “paperwork” left to help stop this so I’m really counting the responsible authorities make the right choice.

  267. Protected nature is not for sale, not even to greedy billionaires.. And people are fighting back ❗ #HandsOffVjosaNarta ❗Important side note: As part of the process of joining the EU, Albania is expected to align with the EU’s environmental rules, including the Birds and the Habitats Directives. The Commission is urging that Albania repeal the changes to the Law on Protected Areas and terminate the law on strategic investments.

  275. Thousands of Albanians took to the streets for the tenth consecutive day in mass protests over. corruption and economic challenges amidst growing calls for Prime Minister Edi Rama to resign.

  293. Gazetarja e CNN, Isa Soares, ka reaguar përmes një postimi në Instagram lidhur me protestat që. ë po zhvillohen në Shqipëri, duke vënë në dukje transformimin e tyre nga një kauzë mjedisore në një lëvizje me dimension më të gjerë politik. Sipas Soares, mobilizimi qytetar që nisi për mbrojtjen e flamingove dhe të vijës bregdetare shqiptare është zgjeruar përtej çështjeve të mjedisit, duke u kthyer në një protestë më të gjerë kundër qeverisë. “Ajo që nisi si një fushatë për mbrojtjen e flamingove dhe bregdetit të Shqipërisë, tani është shndërruar në një lëvizje më të gjerë antiqeveritare”, shkruan gazetarja e CNN në postimin e saj në Instagram. Komenti i saj vjen në një kohë kur protestat e nisura kundër projekteve të diskutueshme të investimeve në zonat bregdetare po tërheqin vëmendje të gjerë brenda dhe jashtë vendit. #news24 #balkanweb #FlamingoRevolution #FlamingoAlbania #AlbanianRevolution
