Brief clashes broke out in central Tirana on the evening of June 12 when supporters attending celebrations for the governing Socialist Party came into contact with anti-government demonstrators protesting outside the Prime Minister's Office. The protests are part of a campaign against a controversial tourism development project in the Narta Lagoon area and Sazan Island, linked to a company associated with Jared Kushner, son-in-law of US President Donald Trump. The confrontation adds to political tensions in Albania over the planned high-end tourism investments.
