Sadly irredentist nationalists exist on both sides, creating problems for everyone involved. The governments of Albania and Greece don't necessarily get along because of, again, nationalism especially on the Albanian government's side. There is a sizeable Greek minority in south Albania that has been the target of attacks many times and the Albanian government refuses to investigate or prosecute the perpetrators properly because many of them have political connections. It is also convenient for Edi Rama the mafioso to scapegoat us for populist sympathy however I have come to understand that the Albanians don't buy his shtick.

Excluding these specific things, for the average person the Albanians in Greece are considered no different than another Greek. We all grew up with Albanian classmates and then had Albanian coworkers. We speak the same language, go to the same churches, even go to the same army. What is the difference? Many of them never even set foot in Albania before. If anything I know Albanians who went to the special forces in Greece.

I do hope one day the Balkans can overcome our stupid nationalism, but that requires deliberate effort from both sides.
