The documents deal mainly with the activities of the top Soros operative in Albania – Andri Dobrushi – the director of Open Society Foundation-Albania who channeled funding to what Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban calls Soros’s “mercenary army.” (2/9)

The documents show that U.S. grant money flowed through non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that professed to promote “civil society” – while in fact those NGOs attacked traditional & pro-American groups, governments, and policies. (3/9)

Records show Soros operative Dobrushi was the first person on a list of invitees by then U.S. Ambassador to Albania Donald Lu to attend an “election roll-out event” (intended to launch U.S. assistance for local elections) at the U.S. Embassy in 2015. (4/9)

As JW previously reported, Ambassador Lu has been closely associated with George Soros and with the socialist government in Albania. Donald Lu has since been nominated by the Trump Administration to become the U.S. Ambassador to Kyrgyzstan. (5/9)

JW President @TomFitton: “The Deep State is aligned with Soros & uses the State Department in countries like Albania to push its radical agenda. And, of course, tax dollars for Soros abroad help free up resources for his activities here in the U.S.” (9/9)
