Iran has reacted to statements by Prime Minister Edi Rama, who accused Tehran of fueling a disinformation campaign regarding the debate over the Zvërnec project.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei rejected the accusations of the Albanian prime minister, saying that after these claims it could also be said that the flamingos are Iranian secret agents.

"Iran? Maybe they'll say that even flamingos were Iranian secret agents," Baghaei quipped.

He further described the Albanian government's stance as a narrative repeated by the authorities who, according to him, seek to get closer to Israel.

"This is a stereotypical line from a governing body that seeks to get even closer to the Zionist regime," the Iranian spokesman said.

Baghaei also criticized the accusations leveled against Iran, arguing that they aim to avoid internal political debate.

"To make such an accusation against Iran means to make fun of the Zionist regime. But the Albanian people are certainly very understanding and know that such labels are made simply to avoid accountability before their people regarding actions that are naturally considered against the sovereignty and dignity of that country," he said.

The reaction comes after Rama stated during the EU-Western Balkans Summit in Tivat that foreign actors are behind some of the narratives spread on social networks about the Zvërnec project, directly mentioning the Iranian regime.

According to the prime minister, Tehran is part of efforts to spread the claim that the project in Zvërnec is linked to a plan to settle Palestinians from Gaza in Albania.

"The Iranian regime, long involved in cyberattacks against our country, is part of efforts to spread the narrative that the project aims to bring Palestinians from Gaza to Albania," Rama declared.

The Prime Minister described these claims as part of a "hybrid war" against Albania and said that manipulated videos and materials that do not reflect the reality in the country are circulating on social networks.
