Prime Minister Edi Rama announced plans to create a sovereign state for the Bektashi Order in Tirana, inspired by Mother Teresa, emphasizing moderation and coexistence.
Rama highlighted the Bektashi Order as a new center for moderation, tolerance, and peaceful coexistence, aiming to promote religious harmony under Vatican-like sovereignty.
Edmond Brahimaj, leader of the Bektashi, called the initiative an 'extraordinary' step towards enhancing religious tolerance and paving the way for peaceful cohabitation.
The Albanian government’s initiative will transform 27 acres of land into a microstate, providing the Bektashi with autonomy over religious and administrative matters.
