Albania’s Prime Minister Edi Rama Faces Renewed Calls to Resign After Violent Clashes

Anti‑government demonstrators in Albania continued to demand the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama on Tuesday, as confrontations with police turned violent again in the capital. Protesters gathered near key government buildings, chanting slogans and holding signs urging the premier to step down.

Police responded with crowd‑control measures, and several clashes were reported, resulting in injuries among both demonstrators and law‑enforcement officers. The unrest follows weeks of mounting criticism of Rama’s administration over economic and governance issues.

Despite the escalating tension, Rama has not addressed the resignation demands publicly, and authorities have called for calm while maintaining a visible police presence to prevent further disorder.
