We went on a hike barefoot all the way up to the top, and we were just captivated and it stayed with us ever since.&#8221;<\/p> <p>Over the ensuing years, the couple&#8217;s captivating trip evolved into plans to build a luxury resort along a stretch of Albanian coastline directly across from the island. Albania&#8217;s government has given the project preliminary approval, prompting daily protests outside Prime Minister Edi Rama&#8217;s office in the capital Tirana.<\/p>\n<p>Chanting &#8220;Edi Rama out!&#8221; thousands of people flooded the capital&#8217;s streets on a recent day, calling on the prime minister to resign.<\/p> <p>&#8220;It started with a national area being closed off to the public and having big lorries and trucks starting to build in a protected area,&#8221; said protester Eden Hosha about Zv\u00e9rnec, the coastal area across from the island. Hundreds of species of birds nest here in the winter.<\/p> <p>But as these protests have grown bigger in recent days, they&#8217;ve become a public show of no-confidence in the Albanian government itself. &#8220;We&#8217;re tired of these guys stealing from us,&#8221; said Hosha. &#8220;Stealing our resources. Selling things that are not theirs to sell.&#8221;<\/p> <p>For decades, Sazan Island was used by Albania&#8217;s then-ally the Soviet Union as a submarine base and testing grounds for biological and chemical weapons. Soviet-era masks still litter Sazan today.<\/p>\n<p>The island sits across the sea from Zv\u00e9rnec, a strip of beach and cliffs along Albania&#8217;s Adriatic coastline that protects an inland lagoon. In the David Senra podcast that aired earlier this month, Ivanka Trump described both plots of land as belonging to her and Kushner. &#8220;Not only the island, but we have five miles of beachfront directly across from the island,&#8221; she told Senra. &#8220;This beautiful peninsula with a lagoon on one side, the ocean on the other, and beautiful white sand beaches.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In an episode called &#8220;Ivanka Trump on Building the Authentic Life,&#8221; Trump told Senra that over the course of many years, she and Kushner &#8220;developed the opportunity&#8221; to help realize the land&#8217;s potential and transform it. &#8220;For me, this feels more like a challenge than anything else, the culmination of all of my experience in real estate, all of my travel, a lot of reflection on how I want to live,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>But there are already tens of thousands who are living their lives on this land. Taulant Bino stands along a desolate dirt road surrounded on both sides by wetland. He holds a pair of binoculars to his eyes and calls out the names of these residents. &#8220;This is a black-winged stilt,&#8221; says Bino. &#8220;And then you see common terns and little terns. There&#8217;s a little egret. And then flamingos, I saw at least one but there should be more in the lagoon.&#8221;<\/p> <p>Bino is an ornithologist; he heads the Albanian Ornithological Society. He says this strip of coastal land is part of a protected ecological area called Vjose-Narte \u2014 it&#8217;s a lagoon next to what he calls , or salt flats \u2014 where glaringly white fields of salt sparkle like gemstones in the sunlight. &#8220;It&#8217;s an incredible place,&#8221; says Bino. &#8220;You have the  which are really important for breeding birds, and also Narte Lagoon, which is really important for wintering birds.&#8221;<\/p> <p>Over the years, Bino and his colleagues have identified 250 bird species in the Narte Lagoon. He points across the water, where a construction company has built an access road into this protected area for bulldozers and equipment. &#8220;Birds are the first to suffer,&#8221; he says with a frown. &#8220;Building an access road in the middle of the breeding season, for a lot of species, it&#8217;s horrendous. It not only interrupts the breeding season, but it might crush also animals like amphibians and reptiles.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ivanka Trump describes her and her husband&#8217;s future development as one that shows restraint and care for this pristine environment. Bino sees it differently. &#8220;What we see from the project ideas, we see tall buildings,&#8221; he says, &#8220;up to 10,000 rooms, so all of this is for a new city rather than an environmental project.&#8221;<\/p> <p>A group of environmental organizations have joined together to file legal challenges against Albania&#8217;s government over the project. Dorian Matlija, their lawyer, says their case hinges on the fact the land this resort would be built on is protected under a range of international treaties, including the <u>European Union&#8217;s &#8220;Natura 2000,&#8221;<\/u> an ecological network of protected areas in the EU.<\/p>\n<p><u>Albania, as an official candidate for EU membership<\/u>, is subject to this network&#8217;s rules, says Matlija.<\/p> <p>&#8220;All of these say one thing: that you don&#8217;t develop anything big,&#8221; he explains. &#8220;You can only use the land or the area itself for agriculture, traditional agriculture, not intensive. You could also use it for fishing, but also traditional fishing, of course.&#8221;<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bestusamoverss.com\/?p=2763\">The World Cup reminds us that the way to a visitor\u2019s heart \u2026 is through their stomach<\/a><\/p> <p>But in 2024, Prime Minister Rama ushered in a new law that stripped away Albania&#8217;s protection of this ecosystem, allowing for the construction of five-star hotels on the land. Matlija says the legislation violates both Albanian and EU laws. &#8220;So this is also endangering our longtime dream [of] joining the EU as well,&#8221; he adds. &#8220;So now there is this problem. So basically, if somebody will try to go to the court against that, they have high chance of winning and that&#8217;s a big problem for the investors.&#8221;<\/p> <p>Another problem for the investors: On June 2, Albanian anti-corruption prosecutors froze the bank accounts of a firm that purchased land along this ecologically protected coastline. It&#8217;s part of an investigation into fraudulent property titles and it involves a company named Albania Land Development owned by the prominent Qatari brothers Moutaz and Ramez Al-Khayyat, who are <u>helping finance <\/u>and build Kushner and Trump&#8217;s luxury resort.<\/p>\n<p>NPR reached out to the Al-Khayyat brothers, but they didn&#8217;t respond to a request for comment.<\/p> <p>When NPR emailed Kushner&#8217;s Affinity Partners, a representative of a company called Sazan Real Estate Development responded with a statement from Asher Abehsera, a businessman Kushner has teamed up with to build projects in New York. &#8220;Our focus&#8221; the statement said, &#8220;remains on responsible stewardship, environmental enhancement, job creation, and creating long-term value for local communities.&#8221;<\/p> <p>The representative said Kushner&#8217;s Affinity Partners investment firm has no role in this project and that &#8220;partners are involved as investors in their personal capacity.&#8221;<\/p> <p>Finding who those investors are, though, has been difficult. &#8220;From Albanian documents, it&#8217;s impossible to find out,&#8221; says Lindita Cela, one of Albania&#8217;s most decorated investigative journalists.<\/p> <p>For months, she&#8217;s been tracking down a string of shell companies from Albania to the Netherlands that are connected to Kushner and Trump&#8217;s project. &#8220;You see one company, and you&#8217;ll see that &#8216;who owns this company?&#8217; and it&#8217;s another company,&#8221; explains Cela. &#8220;If you go to this company, then another one, and then you&#8217;ll find another one. This other company still brings to you not to any names, but to another company. You just need to keep digging, digging, digging.&#8221;<\/p> <p>She compares her investigation to opening a set of Russian matryoshka dolls, one after another. She&#8217;s discovered several of the shell companies share the same address in Amsterdam and that each of them is worth a single euro.<\/p> <p>They lead to the smallest matryoshka doll, a company named Interroyal BV, established with 18,000 euros in 2004 by a Russian citizen named Nikita Maximovich Vinogradov and a Bulgarian citizen named Zoya Georgieva Gyurova. Cela says each controls 25% of the company, but she says she hasn&#8217;t been able to track either individual down. Neither has a public profile, but, on paper at least, she says the mysterious pair owns hundreds of millions of dollars&#8217; worth of Albanian property.<\/p>\n<p>On a recent weekend on a part of that property, hundreds of Albanians converged to protest the project at the proposed site of the resort in Zv\u00e9rnec. Albi Batozi, a 34-year-old software engineer, was among them. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want anyone to build here because this is our land,&#8221; said Batozi. &#8220;Public land is for everybody, not for just the small 1% of people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Batozi says Prime Minister Rama is treating this land like it&#8217;s his to sell, but he says this land belongs to all Albanians.<\/p> <p>NPR reached out to the prime minister for comment on the project, and his office responded with a lengthy statement, which said in part: &#8220;The government understands that major investments can generate public debate and differing opinions.&#8221;<\/p> <p>The statement went on to say: &#8220;The ambition is to create a new benchmark for sustainable Mediterranean development.&#8221;<\/p> <p>Batozi believes the prime minister is obsessed with five-star luxury resort projects \u2014 overlooking, he says, the fact that Albania is one of Europe&#8217;s poorest countries. &#8220;The problem is that we are comparing ourselves to big countries like they are investing and why are we not investing?&#8221; he says. &#8220;But Albania is like a studio apartment that barely holds place for Albanians. Where do we put this, these visitors? It&#8217;s not that we can afford to build these big resorts like in Greece, for example.&#8221;<\/p> <p>Batozi says he grew up going to this beach. It was a place where all Albanians, no matter their social background, could freely visit. He says if Kushner and Trump&#8217;s resort is built here, it&#8217;ll be part of his country&#8217;s coastline that is closed off to most Albanians.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/bestusamoverss.com\/?p=2759\">Live with a partner?
