One in three persons that leaves Albania is of young age, with the country being one with the biggest brain drain in the region, according to the latest Gallup survey.

Albanians today leave their country because they have less possibilities for education, whereas the educated have less possibilities to get a job. Edi Rama has promoted the people with criminal records instead of the educated youths. High taxes imposed by Edi Rama’s government in the last seven years have taken more money from the youth pockets than any other government, and the corruption halts the progress of the honest professionals.

The exodus of youth is another big wound for Albania. We will do everything to keep the youth in our country as the most vital workforce. We have planned supporting the youth’s initiatives, the right conditions for employment, and their entrepreneurships. They are full of ideas, passion, and energy to boost the country’s development.

We will free the market from the monopoles so that our economy can breathe freely, with low taxes, investments in technology, and fiscal policies that support working.

We will create spaces so that everyone who aspires education can do it in their country. Albanians want a government that takes care of the people and is by their side, a government that offers the possibility of employment to our young men and women.
