Eurovision Grand Final in Vienna: The 70th Eurovision Song Contest is under way at the Wiener Stadthalle with 25 countries competing, tight security, and protests still swirling over Israel’s participation. Albania on the stage: Albania’s Alis performs “Nân” in the final running order (slot 5), as fans watch for a strong result amid a week of boycotts. ** **Culture & EU ties: Albania and France signed their first film co-production deal at Cannes, letting jointly made films count as national productions in both countries and unlock public funding. ** **Economy watch: The Bank of Albania says the outlook remains positive, keeping the key interest rate at 2.5% while warning global risks—especially energy and geopolitics—could still bite. ** **Wages gap: New data shows Albanian workers still earn far less than most of Europe, even after recent wage rises. ** **Saranda crackdown: More details emerged from the illegal construction probe, linking a beach bar case to the property of a murdered tourist guide and to arrests of senior police officials. Film, money, and music—Albania’s week is ending on a busy note.
