- Kushner and Ivanka Trump, along with the project’s investors, have not been accused of any wrongdoing, and the Kushner-backed company maintains the land acquisitions were lawful.
- The resort project faces strong opposition from environmental activists and locals concerned about threats to wetlands and wildlife, including flamingos and sea turtles.
- Despite legal and environmental controversies, Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama continues to support the development, which Kushner announced in 2024 after discovering the area during a yacht trip.
