Prime Minister Edi Rama

Prime Minister Edi Rama has responded today again to citizens' comments on social networks, where one of the points affected is tourism.

Rama recalled the figures that show the impact that tourism has on the Albanian economy.

" There have been many questions about tourism. Here I have the report from the World Travel and Tourism Council, an independent institution. In Albania, the weight of tourism for 2024 is 26 percent of the gross national product, employment 21.8 percent of the total. Foreign tourist spending in 2024 was 4.8 million dollars. 278 thousand people are employed in this sector. I was told 2-3 months of tourism.
We have tourism from January to December. They try to paint Albania as Somalia.
It is an industry created in our Somalia, an industry that brings 4.5 billion in income from those who come here from abroad.
Having said all this, they say they take it for granted, as I take it for granted that I have brought harm to everyone ," he said.
