Dua Lipa criticizes Rama's government: Changing the environmental law without public consultation is worrying

World-famous Albanian singer Dua Lipa has raised concerns about environmental policies in Albania, criticizing legal changes affecting protected areas.

During a conversation with Albanian writer Lea Ypi on her podcast "Service95 Book Club", the singer spoke about current developments in the country and how environmental issues are being managed.

Dua Lipa said that changing laws related to the environment without a public consultation process is a worrying issue.

"We cannot talk about the history of Albania without talking about Albania today. I find it worrying that the government can change the environmental law without a public consultation," she declared.

Her comments relate to changes to Law 21/2024 on construction in protected areas, which have sparked debates about their impact on areas of natural importance, including the Vjosa-Narte lagoon and the Zvërnec area, where tourist construction is planned.
