The only way for Kurt to “destable” Albania, is to blow up Kosovo

In Kosovo, Albin Kurti's public supporters are making public calls against Albania. It is a complex of calls and actions that imply the destabilisation of Albania, as retaliation for its failure to support Albin Kurti. They're different forms.

Some more ordinaries call not to rest on the Albanian coast, as they think tourism as the basic branch of the Albanian economy will fail and Albania will collapse.

Some more intellectuals call on Albania's prime minister not to get involved in Kosovo's affairs, because Kosovo solves its own problems, since he disagrees with Albin Kurti about the way it is dealing with the crisis with the West.

Others redeem that Kosovo has reached where it is from legislative evolution from the time it has been in the former Yugoslavia to the Ohrid Agreement, not from NATO bombs, and with this case underscores the non-relevantness of the West and reports with it at this moment.

The common denominator is distance from Albania, among other things, and as an ally of the West.

In Tirana, meanwhile, they have announced an anonymous protest against the prime minister in the afternoon to protest Albania's stance on Kosovo. Reports disperse Sali Berisha, but unnamed, while the slogan mimics the slogan of the two governments' failed collection in Gjakova.

I don't know how further this Albin offensive can evolve against Albania, but there will surely be other creative ideas, like the word comes to boycott the Shishtec potatoes, Lusnja tomatoes, the carrots of Saranda Rogozyna and watermelons, etc., in hopes of going bankrupt and Albanian agriculture.

All these ideas come from a party that was primarily born to the national union of Albanians, and since the third year in power has ended as Albania's greatest hater, what is called the mother state, in the terminology of “the representatives of the nation's”.

The essence of this campaign, which is directed directly by Albin Kurti, is easily understood, even though it is entirely naive, has to do with an official effort to destabilise Albania economically and politically as the enemy of the Kurti government.

When I say it's the naï campaign, I remember that Albania's tourism is not maintained by tourists coming from Kosovo, as 7 million tourists have arrived last year, and this year it could go to 10 million at this rate. Of course, it is thought that 1 million tourists are part of the Albanian world in the Balkans, but not of Albin Kurti.

Those who come to Albania do not come to like Edi Rama as tourist attraction, but that he is free and is a new destination that is being developed at a high pace, thanks to Edi Rama. The myth of patriotic tourism is false and cannot keep Albanian tourism on foot. If it wasn't for the Rinas airport that has dozens of people who bring to Albania, we wouldn't be talking about tourism yet.

Albanian agriculture does not unfortunately have the main Kosovo market, even though it could have it. Kosovo has the main resource for supplying food to Serbia, and not because of Albania, but because of their tradition in the domestic market and the easier natural ties they have with Serbia.

Politically, efforts to bring down Edi Rama from Albin Kurti are not new. He has taken a direct part in anti-government protests in Tirana, as was December 2018, has participated in the Albanian election against the government of Edi Rama, as were those in 2021, but it is not as much of a support as any farmers' association protesting about financial compensation.

Protests staged on behalf of Kosovo -- even run by Berisha -- end up in insulting protests for Kosovo, as fewer people gather than when Luiz and Ciara take walks at the Shkodra market.

The problem is worse than that. Kosovo cannot harm Albania with the minds of Albin Kurti, through diversion methods, boycott or destabilisation like these campaigns leading Albin Kurti himself.

But Albin Kurti damages Albania by damaging Kosovo. Ruling by Albin Kurti, being put in an international spiral of isolation, being a hotbed of tension in the region, maintaining a permanent crisis alive as a way to survive politically, Albin Kurti depletes Kosovo, eliminates foreign investment there, creates negative perceptions of the country and the region.

Being a NATO-member state and EU candidate, Albania at least feels ashamed and mostly damaged by all of this, but not by Albin Kurti's internal diversion. Albania is destabilised only by the Kosovo blow-up from Albin Kurti. That's a serious consequence.

A country that has a tourism growth boom like Albania and a high growth rate, according to today's IMF report, of course damaged and failed neighbours. I'm not going to war, because it's not just Albin Kurti. Fortunately, NATO and KFOR will be able to keep us out of the war, and this is fate for Kosovo, otherwise these Albin clubs that call not to come to Albania as vacationers, we will have to wait again as war refugees. /The theme/
