Edi Rama's intrigue between the US and the EU / Are American soldiers still protected in Albania?

At the height of the Trump administration's clash with the International Criminal Court, the Albanian government has quietly abrogated the agreement that protected American servicemen from extradition to The Hague. But an unusual maneuver with the publication of the law in the Official Gazette raises suspicions that Edi Rama is trying to please Brussels without angering Washington.

Protests against Prime Minister Edi Rama and his government are set to continue on Thursday, with protesters planning two separate demonstrations. The first will take place at 10:00 a.m. outside Parliament, coinciding with the plenary session, while the second, marking the 33rd consecutive day of protests, is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. The evening rally will begin at Skanderbeg Square before marching to the Prime Minister's Office. Organizers have reiterated that their primary demand is the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama, stating that the demonstrations will continue until this objective is achieved. They have also called on citizens from across Albania, as well as members of the Albanian diaspora, to join the protests.

One of the most notable moments during Wednesday evening's demonstration was the unveiling of an improvised bust, which protesters used to convey the message that Prime Minister Rama would meet the same fate as former communist dictator Enver Hoxha.

After marching through the streets of Tirana for about an hour, protesters concluded the rally by announcing a new demonstration outside Parliament on Thursday. Once again, participants chanted anti-government slogans, including "Rama, resign," "Revolution," "Albania wants revolution," and "Rama to prison." Humorous and ironic placards, many inspired by viral social media memes, have also become one of the defining features of the ongoing protest movement.

Andi Bushati: An autumn with an end-of-regime atmosphere

Whether it's his own party's own dice that throw him a punch, whether it's citizens who boo him in the street, whether it's the brave SPAK prosecutors who have gotten close to his throat, or international journalists who compare him to the godfather, one thing shows that Edi Rama's political curve has reached its end. His propaganda narrative is already over.

Blendi Kajsiu: Prime Minister's misunderstanding on anti-corruption

The fact that no institution of our public administration noticed that millions of euros were invested in phantom incinerators, that AKSHI was controlled by an ordinary criminal, that the directors of the Municipality of Tirana awarded tenders to themselves, or that the police director and the director of SHISH worked for Gysi, shows that we do not have a public administration and a state.
