100 days of Flamingo Revolution in Albania: from nature protection to protest

The movement began in May 2026 in the coastal village of Zvërnec in southern Albania, where private security ejected a protester while police watched as construction machinery entered a protected nature zone. The immediate trigger was a luxury resort project linked in media to Jared Kushner, Donald Trump's son-in-law, which would have turned an ecologically valuable stretch of coastline into a retreat for the wealthiest.
