Today is the 105th protest against the government of Prime Minister Edi Rama. Today's rally will also be joined by Albanians from the diaspora. As can be seen in the video, Albanians from the diaspora have traveled from different countries to participate in the national protest that will take place in Tirana.
Coming from England and various European Union countries, they have traveled for three days in a row, forming a convoy of vehicles filled with red and black flags, national symbols, and political slogans.
"Albania of Albanians" is one of the messages that accompanies their vehicles during the journey to Albania.
Participants say they are heading to the country to protest and convey a political message, demanding change and the removal of the current government. Albanians in the diaspora say they have encountered the biggest obstacles while crossing the border with Montenegro.
"We have been traveling towards Albania for three days and we have encountered the biggest obstacles at the border with Montenegro," stated some of the participants.
This is not the first time that the diaspora has joined the protest in Tirana. In several other rallies, the diaspora has filled the squares in the capital.
The protest began in Zvernec, after an incident where private guards dragged away several citizens who were protesting against the fencing of the area. From a protest against the project in Zvernec, the rally expanded and took on another political dimension, with calls against the Rama government and the entire political class.
For more than three months, Tirana has become the epicenter of protests against the Rama government, with citizens gathering daily in the streets of the capital to demand political change. The rallies have been held every day, creating a new form of political protest in the country, which has also attracted international attention.
