For nearly half a century, under the rule of the communist dictator Enver Hoxha, the press was censored and strictly controlled by the state. The fall of communism brought a certain degree of freedom, but government critics were beaten up and newspapers were closed under political pressure. Today, nearly three decades later, the press is still not free, despite current Prime Minister Edi Rama\u2019s history as an advocate of press freedom. He himself was once beaten up around 1997 because of his writings critical of the Berisha government.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cfa498f\" data-id=\"cfa498f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-24e7160 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"24e7160\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"294\" src=\"https:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/irls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/podcast-300x294.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/irls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/podcast-300x294.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/irls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/podcast.jpg 325w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0e4057f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0e4057f\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8235458\" data-id=\"8235458\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1e7aa7d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1e7aa7d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"193\" src=\"https:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/irls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/berisha-300x193.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/irls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/berisha-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/irls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/berisha.jpg 628w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Former President and Prime Minister of Albania, Sali Berisha<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4bea1d1\" data-id=\"4bea1d1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eb2045a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eb2045a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Rama administration\u2019s use of smear tactics against journalists and its push to enact draconian laws have led to the deterioration of press freedom in Albania.<\/p><p>We are tracking press freedom in Albania, starting with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mccaininstitute.org\/blog\/postponement-of-albanias-media-muzzle-shouldnt-fool-anyone\/\">op-ed<\/a> published in three different languages.
