Kushner will build a resort in Zvrnec/ "Washington Post": Concerns

The American media, "Washington Post" has published an article dedicated to the investments of former President Trump's son-in-law in the Balkans, Jared Kushner.

"Washington Post" writes that Jared Kushner is planning two important investments in Albania, but the most controversial one is in the coastal area of ??Zvrnec.

The article states that on one of his many trips to Albania over the past few years, Jared Kushner went for a walk along the Mediterranean coastline. The place, he said, was "magnificent" and now he is looking to turn this wild area of ??Albania into one of the most luxurious resorts in the world.

The "Washington Post" points out that " Kushner's planned development is facing local and international blowback because of its potential environmental damage. Conservation groups warn that the construction of villas and hotel rooms could destroy a habitat for pelicans, flamingos and some endangered species and undermine international efforts to preserve one of the last wild coastal ecosystems in the Mediterranean .

" I have great concerns ," said Ryan Gellert, CEO of Patagonia, which has worked with Albania to preserve a wild river system not far from Kushner's future country.

In an interview, Gellert said the river system depends on a healthy delta.

"It is an amazing area, unique in the entire Mediterranean. And the idea that they would develop this, especially in the absence of a master plan, is a really bad idea."

On the other hand, Kushner and his partners counter that the project would destroy the ecosystem. Asher Abehsera, CEO and partner of Affinity Global Development, Kushner's development firm, said the project will " enhance " the area, not threaten it. Kushner stated that the project would " respect all environmental requirements " and be " very sustainable "./ CNA
