In a time when many Albanian young people are leaving the country to find better opportunities abroad and sometimes giving up their citizenship, Dua Lipa’s act is a meaningful symbol of the love for her origin, her identity and her commitment to promote the country in the best way possible.

We have always told Dua we love her, but now we tell her Thank You to have always considered your identity a priority in so many important global events!
