VARIOUS OF PROTESTERS HOLDING BANNERS, WAVING ALBANIAN FLAGS AND CHANTING SLOGANS AT SKANDERBEG SQUARETIRANA, ALBANIA - JUNE 29: Protesters gathered in Albania's capital Tirana on Monday, June 29, marking the 30th consecutive day of demonstrations against a planned tourism project in the Zvernec area of the southwestern city of Vlora. Carrying Albanian flags and banners reading "Albania is not for sale," demonstrators marched from Skanderbeg Square to the Prime Minister's Office, opposing the planned sale of a beach for a tourism development alleged to be linked to Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump. After speeches outside the building, demonstrators continued to march through the streets of Tirana. Protesters opposed the alleged sale of a beach in Zvernec for a tourism project that Albanian media reports have been linked to Jared Kushner, and her wife, and Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump. Media reports said the Special Prosecution Office has opened an investigation into the project. Prime Minister Edi Rama, however, told CNN that claims that the Zvernec project belongs to the Trump family were false. On the fourth day of the demonstrations, which began May 30 and drew thousands, police used water cannons against protesters. The project is estimated to cost $4 billion.
