AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Media Freedom Under Pressure: The EU says it is monitoring new restrictions on journalists and lawyers at Albania’s Special Court against Corruption and Organised Crime, effective 1 September, with Albania’s Bar Chamber set to discuss a possible boycott. Instagram Crackdown: SafeJournalists and Albanian media unions warn of unexplained Meta restrictions, including Euronews Albania’s Instagram page showing “user not found,” as dozens of protest-linked accounts reportedly face suspensions. Wildfire Response: Albania reported 32 wildfires in 24 hours, with crews battling blazes near Dajti, Shkodër, Fier and Pukë; in Himara, investigations follow a major fire that damaged or destroyed homes. EU Migration Plan: Five EU states push “return hubs” outside the bloc, targeting late 2027 transfers, while Amnesty calls the idea “cruel black holes” for human rights. Economy & EU Path: Manufacturers seek tax cuts ahead of EU competition; World Bank says Albania gains most from transport spending; Albania’s expected 1% GDP EU budget contribution and Rama’s push for earlier single-market access. Business & Diplomacy: Israeli officials opened a Chamber of Commerce office in Republika Srpska, deepening ties. Justice & Pay: Minister Toni Gogu says a legal gap on magistrates’ salaries will be fixed in Parliament Tuesday.
