Protests in Albania over a proposed luxury resort backed by Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s son-in-law, are expected to intensify after opponents rejected an offer from the country’s prime minister ‘to discuss solutions’. Footage showed police firing water cannon at protesters as thousands of people took to the streets of Tirana for a third day on Wednesday, some of them holding inflatable flamingos to symbolise the environmental damage they fear the project could cause, amid growing calls for it to be blocked. In January, Ivanka Trump made a surprise visit to Albania with a team of architects, touring the site earmarked for development by her husband’s investment firm, Affinity Partners. The resort is planned for an area that includes the uninhabited outcrop of Sazan, Albania’s largest island, as well as wetlands and coastal habitats within the surrounding marine national park
