you have no idea what you are talking about. Albanians have nothing to do with Italians ethnically
Albanians don’t have Arab roots. Islam is the first religion in Albania because of Ottoman Turks domination, as in Bosnia. This guy has not Arberesche ancestry though.

Yep, more Albanian than anything
