TEHRAN, Mar 16 - Albanian opposition supporters are holding a protest against the government which they accuse of being corrupt and linked to organized crime.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Thousands of supporters of the center-right Democratic Party-led opposition have gathered on Saturday in front of Socialist Prime Minister Edi Rama's office to demand his resignation.
The opposition, whose lawmakers have relinquished their seats in parliament, declines to dialogue with Rama, asking for a transitory Cabinet without him to prepare early elections.
The United States and European Union have warned the opposition against using or inciting violence and to sit down for talks.
Recent rallies have turned violent, with police deploying tear gas.
Albania hopes to get the EU's approval in June on launching membership negotiations.
