Trump-linked $4.6 billion project sparks 42nd night of protests in Albania
At the heart of the protests is a proposed luxury tourism project valued at around $4.6 billion that is linked to the Trump family. The development is planned in Zvernec, an environmentally protected area on Albania's Adriatic coast that conservationists say is home to a fragile lagoon used by thousands of migratory birds. The proposal also includes plans to develop the nearby uninhabited island of Sazan, a former secret communist-era military base, into a high-end tourist destination.
