Albania Freezes Assets in Kushner Resort Probe

Kudos to Albania!

Now watch the US change its mind about withdrawing troops from europe

They’ve been kicked out of Serbia. Now they’ve been kicked out of Albania. Any other countries they’ll try to infest?

**More information about what is happening in Albania:**

The government has gutted the Law on Protected Areas, has provided [**no transparency**](https://www.balcanicaucaso.org/en/cp_article/albania-protests-against-bulldozers-in-the-protected-pishe-poro-narta-area/) regarding a deal with Jared Kushner, and appears to [**violate EU regulations**](https://ecoalbania.org/eu-accession-eu-accuses-albania-of-environmental-damage-and-mismanagement-of-nature/?lang=en), which will affect Albania’s EU accession.

The deal is to give [**Sazan Island**](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-16/kushner-gets-approval-for-luxury-resort-project-in-albania-before-trump-s-return) [a 562-hectare protected area] and a chunk of Zvernec village [also touching the protected area].

We don’t know exactly how much, but we believe they will take from 400 to 600 Hectares of land in Zvernec.

Albanians started protesting on May 30th and were met with masked men who attacked some protesters.

When a landowner passed the fence, he was punched by those thugs and violently [**dragged away**](https://x.com/AnnaDeMilanese/status/2060775149431865828?s=20)**.**

Meanwhile, the police just stood there doing nothing, ensuring no one else passed the fence.

To make matters worse, not a single TV station broadcast the protest. They covered it after, but instead of talking about the stolen land and the destruction of nature, they spent all of their energy on that one thug.

“Coincidentally,” the members of the socialist party also spoke against the thug’s behavior, but not a word about the main issue.

Sazan Island is a former military base, home to over 36 globally endangered species.

Zvërnec is a critical Mediterranean wetland, home to endangered pelicans and flamingos.

We’re talking about over 970 hectares of pristine land handed over on a silver platter to Trump’s family and [**their investors**](https://www.reporter.al/en/2026/05/29/the-investors-behind-the-trump-familys-albanian-resort/)**.**

 The protests have continued and will continue, hopefully spreading across Albania and wherever Albanians live abroad. But please understand that we are not just protesting against this project, but against the rampant corruption since the Socialist Party came to power in 2013.

If you want to learn more about his numerous government scandals, I have summarized the biggest ones in [**this post.**](https://www.reddit.com/r/albania/comments/1tvlt7r/edi_rama_the_criminal_legacy_of_the_albanian/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)

For quite some time, European leaders have been very friendly to Rama despite clear democratic violations and the government’s corruption.

It makes you suspect whether these Western leaders have Western values.

I understand that they don’t really care enough to help Albania, but can they at least not become actors in his propaganda campaigns?

I’m amazed at the fact it’s in the news, not that they peddle in corruption
