A demonstration occurred this afternoon in Tirana, focusing on opposition to a planned development project situated in Zvërnec. Citizens assembled in Skënderbej square before proceeding in a march toward the building housing the prime minister. The gathering was characterized by banners and slogans reiterating several key political demands.
Among the stated grievances were calls for the resignation of the current prime minister, Edi Rama, as well as demands concerning the leadership of the opposition, Sali Berisha. Participants voiced a desire for systemic change and the repeal of recent modifications made to the protected areas law. The underlying sentiment expressed by the crowd was a push toward establishing a “New Albania.”
Following the playing of the national anthem, representatives from the organizing group took the floor to restate the core demands, which mirrored those articulated during a previous demonstration led by Dritan Goxhaj.
The protesters formally presented five main demands, the most prominent of which included the removal of the prime minister, the repeal of a specific status, and the establishment of a clear legal framework for investors. The entire protest highlighted deep public dissatisfaction with current governance and legislative actions. The march to the prime minister’s office underscores the protesters’ intent to place direct political pressure on the government regarding these multifaceted national issues.
The gathering served as a platform for organized dissent, consolidating various political grievances into a unified demonstration in the capital city.
