A growing political crisis in Albania, fears over foreigners buying up land in Serbia and problems of youth radicalisation are among the top stories on Balkan Insight this week.

The political scene in Albania seems to be getting more and more heated by the day. No accident, given that Parliamentary elections are only two months away, prior to which the country’s Parliament will need to elect a new President.

The opposition Democratic Party is threatening to boycott the Parliamentary election due on June 18 unless the current Rama government resigns before then, paving the way for a government of ‘experts’ to organise a free and fair election.
