Albania's migration crisis - and those who are left behind
Albania, a small and poor country in south-eastern Europe of just three million people has been in the headlines in the UK recently.
This is because there has been a recent and dramatic rise in the number of mostly young Albanian men making the perilous crossing to Britain in small boats.
The 麻豆社's Joe Inwood travelled to Albania to find out why young Albanians are risking their lives to come to the UK and the impact it's having on those who are left behind.
