What's wrong with this content?
Hibrid.info has found that this photo is manipulated.
There are also comments in the publication that suggest that the content can be perceived as true.
Hibrid.info, through manual search, found this photo between Kurti and Qosje. Photography was published on the Facebook account (September 17, 2019) of Sabri Kicmari, Kosovo's ambassador to Japan, where the latter is also seen.
In the original photo published by Kicmari, the portrait of dictator Hoxha in the background is missing. This indicates that the image has been modified to create a false impression, presenting dictator Hoxha behind Kurti and Qosje.
Analyze:
The photograph showing the portrait of dictator Enver Hoxha on the wall, in a shot showing Prime Minister Albin Kurti and academic Rexhep Qosja, is manipulated.
In the original photograph showing Kurti, Qosja, and Ambassador Kiçmari (from which the edited photograph was taken), the portrait of dictator Hoxha is missing.
Based on the working methodology, hibrid.info evaluates it as "Fraud".
