—🇪🇺 /🇦🇱 NEW: The European Union has warned Albania that a luxury coastal resort project in Zvërnec linked to Jared Kushner could breach environmental regulations and jeopardize EU accession talks.
➡️ PM Edi Rama defended the development, comparing Zvërnec to Portugal’s Ria Formosa to argue that environmental preservation and high-end tourism can coexist to drive economic growth.
➡️ However, Rama warned that ongoing protests against the project are actively harming the economy, claiming that early booking cancellations have already begun.

🇹🇷 #Turkey: Two armed attacks were carried out on the Otokoç General Directorate in Istanbul, and a Ford dealership in Antalya, with footage showing suspects recording themselves while they shoot at the business in Antalya.
During both attacks, threats were allegedly issued referencing Rahmi Koç, honorary chairman of Koç Holding, which operates Otokoç and is linked to Ford dealerships in Turkey.
The phrase “Rahmi Koç, greetings from brother Serdar Ertekin” was also heard in the footage, with the incidents allegedly linked to a criminal organization. Reports link the attacks to controversy surrounding remarks attributed to Koç after a joke involving a Kurdish woman.
