PM Rama came out earlier this week and called on citizens to start saving and lowering their energy consumption as we could most probably be facing an energy and oil shortage in the upcoming weeks and months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/albania\/2022\/03\/10\/live-nationwide-protests-over-rising-prices\/\">Nationwide protests over rising prices<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/albania\/2022\/03\/10\/well-head-to-france-and-canada-for-our-grains-says-exports-association-rep\/\">We\u2019ll look to France and Canada for our grains, says Exports Association rep<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2022\/03\/09\/how-is-the-oil-crisis-manifesting-itself-in-kosovo\/\">How is the oil crisis manifesting itself in Kosovo?<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<div class=\"spot-im-replies-count\" data-post-id=\"eneu32727\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"spot-im-replies-count\" data-post-id=\"eneu32706\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Police tried to obstruct a protest in the city of Korce, which was staged this morning by students trying to make a statement regarding the rising prices of oil and other products.
