TIRANA, Albania — Protesters marched through the streets of Tirana on Sunday after delivering speeches to supporters, marking the 51st consecutive day of demonstrations calling for political change, government accountability, and action against corruption.

One of the slogans repeatedly heard during the demonstration was "Albania demands revolution," reflecting the frustration expressed by many participants over the country's political and economic situation.
The protest movement has now continued for more than seven weeks, with participants raising concerns about corruption, economic hardship, public services, and what they describe as a growing lack of trust in state institutions. Organizers say the demonstrations are intended to remain peaceful while maintaining pressure on political leaders to respond to citizens' demands.
Following the speeches, protesters proceeded through central Tirana under police monitoring. No major incidents were immediately reported during the march.
Organizers stated that the mobilization will continue in the coming days and urged citizens to remain united and participate in future demonstrations. They argue that sustained public pressure is necessary to achieve meaningful institutional and political reforms.
The ongoing protests have become one of the longest-running civic demonstrations in Albania this year, attracting participants from different age groups and social backgrounds who say they are seeking greater transparency, accountability, and improved governance.
