Era Istrefi is considered the new Ambassador of Kosovo and Albania in the world. The career of the singer has not only managed to snatch the attention of international media and to sign a 1 million dollar contract with a prestigious label studio in London.
However, Kosovo's citizenship seems to have been an obstacle for Era careers, so she went to the office of President Bujar Nishani to get the Albanian citizenship.
Sources close to the Presidency have shown the singer has been submitted with the application for citizenship, and is under consideration by the president.However, the singer's manager, at the same time her boyfriend, Faton Shoshi said that the request has been approved and Era will receive the Albanian citizenship next week in a meeting with President Nishani.
In fact, there were many artists from Kosovo who have requested to received Albanian citizenship. According to manager of Istrefi, "There are many events that she could not take part due to citizenship".
"Eras has promoted Albania wherever she went. In all the interviews said that is pride she is Albanian", said Faton.
