A large coastal development project associated with Jared Kushner is facing growing opposition in Albania from environmental campaigners and critics. While the government promotes it as a boost for tourism and EU aspirations, concerns about its impact are mounting.

A massive coastal development project linked to Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of US President Donald Trump, is facing growing resistance from protesters in Albania. The government says the development on the Adriatic coast would be transformational for the former communist nation as it seeks to enter the high-end tourism market and pushes for European Union membership. But the venture has drawn opposition from environmental campaigners and critics of long-time Socialist Prime Minister Edi Rama.
