Digital Push: The government rolled out e-Albania 2.0, upgrading online public services for faster access and better inclusion for people with disabilities. Legal/Justice Tension: Former president Ilir Meta urged prosecutors to release US-held documents in his case, arguing a secrecy order should not be extended.
