Flamingo protests and widening anti‑Rama unrest
Entities: Besa (policy document) · Zvërnec coastal project · Sali Berisha · Albanian protest movement · Albania
Overview
The nightly “Flamingo” demonstrations that began in June have persisted into 2026, now marking over 56 consecutive days of rallies in Tirana’s Skanderbeg Square. Protesters continue to demand Prime Minister Edi Rama’s resignation, a transitional government, and early free elections, while rejecting the government’s “BESA” strategic‑governance plan presented as a test case for the disputed Zvërnec resort project.
Opposition leader Sali Berisha has amplified calls for mass protests, criticizing parliamentary manoeuvring that he says benefits oligarchs and citing the controversial Kanye West concert subsidy as evidence of fiscal mismanagement.
Rama has shifted blame to foreign‑linked digital manipulation, alleging that major social‑media platforms deployed hundreds of fake Facebook profiles to amplify government narratives and to harass supporters of the “Flamingo Revolution.” Data supplied by the Balkan Investigative Reporting Network suggests a coordinated online campaign, which the prime‑minister’s office portrays as evidence of platform interference.
In parallel, the Democratic Party’s parliamentary group has pressed the Special Prosecution against Rama and Energy Minister Belinda Balluku over the floating thermal power plants “Tiger 1” and “Tiger 3” in Vlorë, alleging €80 million losses and severely under‑delivered electricity output.
Amid these multiple fronts, the Kushner‑backed luxury resort on the Narta lagoon‑Zvërnec coast has stalled. Ongoing street protests, corruption allegations, and formal investigations have placed the project’s future in doubt, leaving the venture on the brink of cancellation.
