The debate has also reached German media and deutschlandfunk public radio writes that Albania risks overcoming Enver Hoxha's atheism towards the danger of Islamic radicalism.
Despite seeing few covered women in Tirana, the DF says the danger exists. The small Namames with their simple minarets hardly appear in the construction sea in the Albanian capital. But all of a sudden the so-called Erdogan Mosque” appears in the report.
The large mosque in Tirana, which will offer seats to 4 thousand believers, is built with money provided by the Turkish government.

It notes that a high number of Albanians, compared to the population, have fought in Syria and Iraq in the ranks of Islamic State.

Radical scenes are growing especially due to the difficult economic situation, the report points out.
