Thousands of people in Albania are demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama, accusing him of giving environmentally sensitive land to investors linked to US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.
A billion-dollar resort is planned to be built on an island off Albania in the Adriatic Sea, which is a wetland home to flamingos, seals, and sea turtle nesting sites.
Environmentalists oppose the plan, saying it would impact several hundred acres of pristine beaches as well as endanger the flamingo population.
Protests have been going on for nearly a week now as activists say they will continue until the government stops the plans.
