    Default Turmoil in Albania

    Albania demonstrates against Trump-Kushner luxurious resort plan on their beaches

    Valy 🎩🎭

    May 30
    Translated from Spanish
    #URGENT: The occupation of beaches in southern Albania to build the luxurious Trump & Kushner resort is being carried out by brutally beating and assaulting peaceful activists and legitimate landowners who dare to defend their coast.

    Let us show the world what the US invasion of nations that cannot defend themselves through war entails—this is what Trump seeks, to seize the land, resources, and wealth of defenseless peoples.

    Why don't they do it with China or Russia?

    This is what they want to do in #Colombia #Cuba and #Mexico; only by preventing the right from returning to power can we defend ourselves from their sellout policies.

    🇦🇱 ALBANIA MARCHES AGAINST KUSHNER-TRUMP RESORT

    Thousands of Albanians took to the streets in a peaceful demonstration opposing the $1.4 billion luxury resort development linked to Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner on the country's southern coast.

    Kushner and Ivanka Trump's "Zvërnec South Adriatic Development" company is building luxury resorts on Sazan Island and the Zvernec peninsula. The development includes approximately 1,000 beach villas, hotel rooms, and a new international airport.

    The site sits within the protected Pishë Poro-Narta wetlandm, one of Albania's most ecologically sensitive areas. 41 environmental organizations from 28 countries have called for immediate suspension of the project. Local residents, environmental groups, and the Greek minority in the area all oppose it.

    Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama's government fast-tracked the deal. Parliament changed environmental law weeks before construction began, specifically permitting five-star hotels in protected zones, a law tailored for this project. The permit was issued April 29, 2026, without public release.

    Rama granted "strategic investor" status to Kushner's Atlantic Incubation Partners LLC in late 2024, just weeks before Trump's inauguration, without a full business plan or feasibility study. Critics say the decision was politically motivated and aimed at securing goodwill from the incoming Trump administration.

    Albanians are telling their government this is not for sale

    Translated from Spanish
    I found an island in the middle of the Mediterranean of 1,400 hectares and decided that's where I want to live—it's the culmination of my reflections from all my travels.

    Trump's daughter and her Zionist husband decided to buy an island in Albania with protected natural areas and endangered species, to build a luxury resort in the style of Epstein's for rich capitalists.

    While Albanians protest in the streets over the purchase of the land and the destruction of the ecosystem, the parasitic Barbie says she decided on a whim to buy an island because she wants to live in the middle of the Mediterranean... how little one hates these capitalist ticks.

    Albania’s anti-corruption prosecutors just froze Kushner’s dirty assets in the $4 billion resort fraud probe.

    The jewish-linked land grab on the Albanian coast is collapsing under fraud investigations and furious public protests

    OMG. Jared Kushner is working with two Syrian billionaires to build his megaresort in Albania. Their assets have been frozen there. In exchange, they wanted Syrian sanctions in the U.S. to be dropped.

    I hope Jared's assets are frozen, too.

    PM Rama is apparently sold to this.

    The tourists fell in love with a protected environmental zone, home of flamingos, sea turtles, and the endangered monk seal.

    Suddenly for sale? Evidently he did not read the tea leaves of the Gulf monarchs; tourism is not the best way to bolster your economy.


    There:


    Quote Private security guards attacked and injured several protesters, leading authorities to suspend several police officers and revoke the licences of two private security companies.

    Protesters gathered outside the office of Albania’s socialist Prime Minister Edi Rama on Tuesday evening, holding inflatable flamingos and signs that read “nation is not for sale” and “I don’t want Albania like Dubai”.

    Perhaps it will follow a pattern:


    Quote However, the demise of a similar project in Serbia offers a cautionary tale. In November, Serbia’s Parliament passed a special law to enable the building of a luxury complex in the capital, Belgrade, to be financed by an investment company linked to Kushner.

    The following month, Serbia’s prosecutor for organized crime charged four people, including a government minister, with abuse of office and falsifying of documents to help pave the way for the development.

    Kushner later withdrew from the planned multi-million investment that would have replaced a sprawling bombed-out military complex, a designated heritage zone whose legal protection was lifted by the former officials now on trial.

    Kushner has been working on this for years, with investigations starting around a 2024 change to environmental laws. The companies are, of course, already destroying nature.

    🇦🇱 Edi Rama denies Kushner project on CNN while Ivanka already promoted it.

    Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama went on CNN to claim there is no Kushner-Trump resort project, calling it "fake news," "fake pictures," and a "hybrid war" disinformation campaign designed to mislead protesters.

    But there's a problem: Ivanka Trump has already given interviews describing the project in detail.

    The CNN host pointed out that we all saw the very real protests, environmental concerns are documented, and Politico reported Albania's anti-corruption prosecution office has opened an investigation into the project.

    When cornered, Rama shifted:,"There is a broader group with very highly reputable investors" working on it, admitting the project exists while simultaneously denying it.

    This is gaslighting on an international level.

    The masses refuse to return to their homes until the project is completely canceled, the occupiers are expelled, and the traitors are held accountable!

    When rumors about the coastline of Greece opposite Albania is also being sold, you have to wonder if the waterway will be controlled in the future…

    Sabrina F.

    Translated from Italian
    IT'S NOT A TOURIST PROJECT, IT'S A MILITARY PROJECT.

    WHAT'S HIDDEN BEHIND THE CASE OF THE RESORT IN #ALBANIA WANTED BY #TRUMP'S SON-IN-LAW?

    🔴For 5 days, Albania's streets have been flooded with protesters chanting “We don't want to end up like Gaza”

    🟣The protest concerns the purchase by Affinity Partners, an investment firm founded in 2021 by Jared Kushner, Donald Trump's son-in-law, of a small island off the Albanian coast.
    🔻Officially, it's about building a luxury resort in a protected natural area, but…
    🔻some time ago, a controversy emerged regarding the "Israeli Colony in Salento" real estate project, promoted by an Israeli entrepreneur: it envisioned the creation of a self-sufficient agricultural and tourist community for Israeli families in southern Italy.

    🟣 From Lecce, the distance between the Salento coast and Albania is just 70 km (Otranto Channel)
    🔻This raises some questions:
    📍is it really just about tourism?
    📍could it be a project to control the ports and waterways leading to the heart of Europe and the port of Trieste?
    📍could it be a new gas route controlled by Isra-el (after the cutoff of Europe-Russia relations)?
    📍do the wars in Ukraine and Iran serve this purpose?

    Jared Kushner’s Affinity linked firm is pursuing a $1.4 billion resort on Albania’s Sazan Island, a former Soviet submarine base filled with Cold War bunkers and tunnels. Tom Elliott’s piece argues the real story is not the Aman branding or “eco resort” pitch, but the political, sovereign wealth, and Epstein adjacent networks around the deal. Here’s the breakdown:

    > Several thousand Albanians protested in Tirana in early June 2026, chanting “Albania is not for sale” over the proposed Sazan Island development.

    > Sazan Island is a 1,400 hectare former military zone with roughly 3,600 nuclear bunkers, underground facilities, and a half century old Soviet submarine base.

    > Atlantic Incubation Partners LLC, affiliated with Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners, was named a “Strategic Investor” by Albania, giving the project expedited permits and incentives.

    > Albania’s anti corruption prosecutor SPAK has opened an investigation into the land reclassifications that cleared the way for the development.

    > Kushner said on the All In Podcast that he first saw the Albanian coastline while vacationing on Nat Rothschild’s yacht, then later met Prime Minister Edi Rama on the same yacht.

    > The proposed project could include up to 10,000 hotel rooms and villas, a marina, an Aman managed hotel, and reuse of the island’s Cold War military structures.

    > Affinity Partners’ anchor investor is Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, which invested $2 billion in 2021 despite objections from its own screening committee.

    > Elliott links the deal’s social network to Nat Rothschild, Peter Mandelson, Jes Staley, Ariane de Rothschild, Tom Barrack, Leon Black, Apollo, and Jeffrey Epstein related records released by Congress and the DOJ

    🇦🇱|Albania Protest Update | June 8, 2026

    Protests continue in Albania against the controversial luxury resort project linked to Jared Kushner on the ecologically sensitive Sazan Island and Narta Lagoon coastline.

    Demonstrators, carrying signs such as “Epstein’s Friends Are Not Welcome in Albania!”, remain vocal in their opposition to the massive development, citing environmental destruction, loss of public access to protected areas, and concerns over foreign elite influence.

    The movement, which has seen multiple days of rallies in Tirana and other locations, shows no signs of stopping as citizens demand protection of Albania’s natural heritage and reject what many call the privatization of the country’s coast for the benefit of global elites.

    Albania is not for sale.
