Hundreds of Albanians gathered in the Austrian capital with red and black flags and banners. Support for the protests in Albania and calls for political change.
Vienna has joined the map of protests by Albanians in the diaspora, as hundreds of immigrants have gathered in the center of the Austrian capital to express support for the protests taking place in Albania.
With national flags, banners, and strong messages, participants marched through the city streets demanding political change and expressing their dissatisfaction with the government in Albania.
Protesters' banners carried messages such as "Albania is not for sale", "The Motherland Calls", as well as other slogans in defense of the public interest and against what the protesters consider the sale of national assets. There was also no shortage of banners with ironic notes, where young people expressed their opposition to concretization and urban developments that, according to them, are damaging the country's identity and natural heritage.
The protesters have stated that even though they live outside Albania, they feel connected to developments in the country and consider it a moral obligation to support civic causes. According to them, emigration has not disconnected them from Albania's problems, but on the contrary has made them more sensitive to the challenges faced by their families and relatives.
The rally in Vienna comes on the same day as protests are taking place in Tirana, Shkodër, Korça, Elbasan and other cities, while similar mobilizations have also been organized in London, Berlin, Munich and Milan.
Participants in the Vienna protest declared that they will continue to support the civic movement and the demands of the protesters in Albania, considering the engagement of the diaspora as an important part of public pressure for change.
