If you enter the BalkanWeb site now, find out tens of news on yesterday's protest - often pronounced violent - one of whom explains that 7 people were arrested, 15 were prosecuted, and 3 policemen were injured. Do you feel like the time or ideal place to make some good holiday days in Albania? No? Well neither tourists.
"The situation is dramatic. Our partners are very worried about the cancellations their customers are doing, "says Monitor Rahman Kasa, chairman of the Albanian Tourist Union. "Our partners are trying to calm them down and are awaiting the development of events."
While Zak Topuzi, from the Hotel and Tourism Society says yes to Monitor that "there are many group cancellations. There are also cancellations in conferences and trainings. "
These statements hurt more today, especially after a very good year for tourism in the country. Years, Albania visited 5.93 million foreigners, an increase of 16% from the previous year, of which 97% came for tourist purposes.
As smarter people say than we do at Instagram, "we must get up in the prosthesis to end these protests."
