Albanian PM: US approval needed on energy

Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama made pointed comments about foreign influence over his country's energy policy. He stated he could speak without the permission of Greece or other Europeans, but could not do so without American approval. Rama bluntly explained this was because the United States 'can be very nasty.' The remarks highlight the perceived outsized role of U.S. power in shaping Balkan energy and geopolitical decisions.
