A few days ago, new US lottery applications have been launched and is expected to have an even greater number of applications to go to the US.It is no longer "news" that Albanians want to leave Albania, but when compared to other countries in the region, it is dramatic.
There are over 200,000 Albanians who have applied for American lottery and are no more than 200,000 citizens of all of the Balkan countries taken together, applying for American lottery.
Albania occupies the first place, with 6.94% of the population seeking to leave the United States.
After Albania comes Macedonia about 4 times less, with about 34,000 citizens or 1.69% of the population seeking to go to the US through the US lottery.
Interesting is the figure of Kosovo.
Only 0.08% of Kosovo's population have applied for US lottery. While other countries such as Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia or Bosnia are in figures ranging from 0.15% to 1.21%.
