That island was seized by the communist government to make a massive military base during the cold war, all kinds of underground tunnels and stuff...utter corruption.
 
“Albania is not for sale. Albania belongs to the Albanian people, and we decide what we want to do here.

It's not that some corrupted politicians can decide what they can do with our property.

He's trying to trade our country as a personal property of him and his family and his collaborators.

We want him to resign.”

How a Jared Kushner-backed resort is putting Albania’s EU bid at risk​

For more than two decades, Albania did the unglamorous work in their bid to join the European Union: overhauling its courts, vetting judges and opening negotiation “clusters” with Brussels in rapid succession.

Then Jared Kushner went for a swim.

On a yacht trip off Albania’s Adriatic coast, Ivanka Trump described how she and her husband Kushner came across the turquoise shallows of the Vjosa-Narta lagoon and unspoiled Sazan Island—and began imagining a luxury resort there.

What followed was not simply a pitch. The legal and political conditions needed to build it were soon put in place. The site itself was among the most heavily protected stretches of coastline in the Mediterranean. The Vjosa-Narta lagoon, home to flamingos and more than 200 migratory bird species, sits inside a designated protected landscape; Sazan Island lies within Albania’s only marine and terrestrial national park.

Police fired tear gas and pepper spray at protesters who were pelting them with rocks, eggs and other objects. Authorities said 12 police officers were injured and 18 protesters were detained.

Communist Albania seized land from farmers to turn the island into a military base, it was NEVER a nature preserve, The farmers want their land back, not given to Jewish landlords.
