The United States Embassy in Tirana, through a notice on its website, has warned American citizens about the planned protest of the Democratic Party, which will be held on Saturday, February 28, 2026, at 6:00 PM, on Dëshmorët e Kombit Boulevard.

While calling the opposition rally a demonstration, the US Embassy has called on American citizens and its personnel to avoid the demonstration area and follow the instructions of local authorities.

Meanwhile, citizens are advised to remain vigilant, be careful with their surroundings, and have an emergency plan or strategy for avoiding overcrowded areas.
