Reason you are seeing so much Albanian in my feed lately: I prefer to keep my criticism of Albania in Albanian. I remain firm in belief positive change comes from within having seen foreigners trying to help and making things worse in the process.

Albanian woman went to court today to ask for protection order & divorce - deranged husband grabs AK-47 shoots her dead on court's step, also wounds two bystanders. Society in identity crisis, plenty of guns, feeling among men that women are property. What else am I missing?

In Albania, people don't commit petty crimes on others not because they are afraid of the police/law but because they are terrified of other Albanians. That said, I feel safer from petty crime in Albania than anywhere else in Europe.

Food prices in Albania are crime against its people. It might just be cheaper to jump on a plane to Italy, load up at supermarket there and fly back than actually shopping in Albanian supermarkets. It has to be corruptive lack of competition, I can find no other explanation.

Albania desperately needs an Albin Kurti-like leader. Since we can't seem to find one, why not simply import the man himself - perhaps with all of Kosove attached.

Albania & Croatia were at same stage of EU hopes in 1996. Croatia zigged. Albania zagged - stealing elections, building pyramid schemes, and [something that continues to today] thieving with impunity. Croatia is now in top-tier EU. Albania is nothing. Thnx Sali, Fatos, Edi, etc!

1. Frustration of ppl to divide Albanians on religion is funny. I have two brothers in law. One is Muslim, the other one Catholic. My family is Orthodox. My parents never cared about religion. The do care about the value of their characters. They're both very good family men.

Do @BBCWorld frontpage editors know the photo they have decided to feature is a genocidaires' signal used by convicted war criminals in the Balkans?!? Serb nationalism gets a pass because this guy can play tennis?

Kosovo president is on a publicity blitz. Saw her on TRT World the other day, now she is on @TheEconomist . Young, eloquent and a great representative of her people. I only wish people like her would get a chance in Albania, where they are left jobless and forced to emigrate.

Rrit kostot, mbaji rrogat si në Afrike beja jetën beterr, vritini shpresën dhe njerëzit pastaj as bëjnë fëmijë e se rrijnë në Shqipëri. Çfarë legacie Rama. Ti mendon se koha jote do mbahet mend për kullat. Unë do i flas 3 brezave që të mbahesh mend për shfarosjen e shqiptarëve.

Forget cooking. I think I can live off this Albanian combo forever - whole wheat bread, white goat cheese, huge ugly-but-delicious tomatoes, badly filtered flavourful local olive oil. Taste of childhood.

I miss the days when no one wanted to come to Albania. We as residents were far better off. I am already annoyed with foreign tourists ... Most of the population will get there in a few years.

Nuk ka nje monument ne Shqiperi per te nderuar inxhinjeret dhe punetoret qe dhane jeten per ndertimin e hidrocentraleve ne kaskaden e Drinit gjate regjimit komunist. Jo vetem energji, po edhe ajer te paster na kane dhene. T'i nderojme ata, jo regjimin sic ndodh rendom.

Few people are aware, but there is a huge community with people of Albanian roots in Izmir, thanks to Serb and Greek ethnic cleansing, or as my buddy @ektrit puts it 'religious clensing'. Greeks and Turks were it it too in there. Lots of blood. Painful history.

Never thought I would see an ethnic Albanian PM in Montenegro before having one in North Macedonia. But I stand by earlier proposal that the two, plus Kasovo and Albania should join in a Benelux type union. That would be an #OpenBalkans I can support. No Serbia of course.

Europe. 2021. I still cannot believe, Kosovo doesn't have visa free travel to Schengen area. This is true madness. Half of Latin America and the Caucasus can come and go. But middle of Europe country is kept away like a ghetto. Shameful.

Applied for a visa to travel ‘n defend my PhD thesis in person. Was asked to provide with an evidence of employment as a proof of return to my country of residence. Thought the usual order is: PhD, defense, employment — not PhD, employment, defense; but then, call me ignorant 1/

Very interesting. EFTA are the wealthy countries EU dreams of having as members but they don't want to join. Europe's two wealthiest countries are in there. If Kosovo figured out a niche deal with Switzerland and Norway, huge upsides.

I urge Albanian media to stop broadcasting government officials visiting earthquake victims. It is sickening. Focus on the people not those who are partly to blame.

Problem with the Serbs is they have a typical barbarian settler mentality running through the centuries. They see something they like that isn't theirs, plant a flag and a couple of buildings and concoct a fake narrative thst doesn't exist. Yeah, doesn't work like that.

Edhe nën rregjim kemi disa opsione për të luftuar #Serbosllavine ku #EdiRama po shet Shqipërine. 1. Dërgimi në Gjykatë Kushtetuese të marrëveshjes. [Është tërësisht jokushtetuese]. 2. Kërkesë për referendum. 3. Protesta masive bllokuese. 4. Bojkot i çdo malli serb.

Shume zhurme ne mediat sociale per identitetin shqiptar te Kosoves. Per mendimin tim, Dardania eshte krahine e Shqiperise aq sa Korca e Mirdita. Sondazhet tregojne qe ne referendume, neser, shqiptaret duan Shqiperi me Arberi e Dardani bashke. Te tjerat jane artifica nga halli.

Debate on Albanian Twitter tonight about Ottoman Empire. Yes, they were invaders that shifted the course of Albanian history in negative way we are still paying for today. Yes, many Albanians did well under the Porte, including as PMs. No contradiction. Just history.

Ronela Hajati complained that her #Eurovision performance had been censored for being too sexual. If that was the censored version, I don't want to know what the original version was. 😂 Not complaining, just saying ...

Me është mbushur mendja plot që bastioni i fundit i shqiptarisë nuk është në Shqipëri por në Kosovë. Shqipëria duhet t'i bashkohet Kosovës. Jo e kundërta.

1. Love it that Albanian is featured on Ukraine linguistic map. See if you can spot Karakurt. 2. This map tells me that Russian is far less present than most people believe.
