Ein falsches Vorbild aus Rom / Gründet der Bektaschi-Orden einen Vatikan in Albanien?
Paolo Zampolli, the special envoy for global partnerships for President Donald Trump, suggested on September 7, 2026, that the people will ultimately decide on the Bektashi Order's plan to establish a sovereign enclave in Albania.
Speaking at the Bektashi World Center in Tirana, Zampolli's comments were reported by RTSH and Agenzia Nova. While his remarks appeared encouraging, they do not constitute formal support from the United States for the Bektashi Order's proposal to create a territory similar to the Vatican within Albania.
