A $4.6 billion luxury development project on Albania's coastline, led by Jared Kushner and backed by Ivanka Trump, has ignited a major political crisis in Albania. The project, which Ivanka described as 'captivating,' is facing fierce opposition from protesters who label it environmental destruction. The controversy has escalated to the point where Prime Minister Edi Rama's political career is now at risk. The development involves building resorts and hotels on pristine coastal areas, raising concerns about environmental damage, corruption, and foreign influence. The situation has become a flashpoint in Albanian politics, with mass protests and calls for the government to cancel the project.
