Albania accused of rushing Trump-linked resort through protected land
Original: Albania accused of rushing through Trump-linked resort in formerly protected landscape By Helena Smith Dutch MEP says go
Albania's government faces accusations of fast-tracking a Trump-linked luxury resort on land that was formerly environmentally protected. A Dutch MEP says Tirana is trying to avoid EU environmental rules as it moves toward EU membership. Protests against the development on the coastal landscape have turned violent, drawing international scrutiny of the project and the government's handling of opposition.
Why now: Protests have turned violent and the project ties a sitting US president's family business to alleged evasion of EU environmental standards.
