Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama plans to hold a rally for Albanian immigrants in Greece on November 3 in Thessaloniki. This event aims to engage the diaspora ahead of Albania’s 2025 parliamentary elections, following a similar rally in Athens earlier this year.
Despite tensions between Greece and Albania, Greece recently supported starting Albania’s EU accession negotiations. Rama faces criticism at home for allegedly targeting political rivals using a special prosecution office. This includes the recent arrest of opposition leader Ilir Meta.
