Adams Gains Albanian Citizenship Amid Corruption Speculation
Eric Adams, former mayor of New York City, has been granted citizenship and a passport by Albania. This development was officially confirmed by a spokesperson for Adams and was documented in Albania’s official government journal via a special decree from President Bajram Begaj. Adams had previously visited Albania, expressing admiration for the country and discussing potential collaborations in tourism and technology, even advocating for direct flights from New York. Albania offers citizenship to foreign adults deemed to be in the national interest, provided they do not pose a public safety risk, a process that a legal services office in Tirana states can lead to immediate citizenship.
