Gazeta Impakt, December 30 2018:... The expulsion of the Iranian ambassador from Albania by order of the US Security Adviser John Bolton is an act that has seriously shaken Albanian politics.

Ora News, December 30 2018:... Our government should not be involved at all with issues relating to Iran, and for me, the Mojahedin should not have been taken in by Albania at all. Taking thousands of people and thereby importing conflict is, for me, very wrong. Albanians have been so persecuted in the last two centuries, even by Europe, there is… 2018/12/30

Iran Interlink, December 28 2018:... Maryam Rajavi used the New Year as an excuse to say something.

Iran Interlink, December 21 2018:... Maryam Rajavi held a meeting in Albania where she announced that Iranian communities in 44 other countries support her. Snippets of this ‘support’ were broadcast on MEK media. The reality is, nobody attended except their low-level paid lobbyists and there were no Iranians except themselves.

Press TV, December 20 2018:... Albania’s move was “in line with previous such scenarios meant to damage Iran-Europe relations at the current sensitive juncture.” .US National Security Adviser John Bolton was quick to publicly support Albania’s decision. “We stand with PM [Edi] Rama and the Albanian people as they stand up to Iran’s reckless behavior in Europe and across the globe,”… 2018/12/20
